Answer:

All of the options correct, (Intrusion Prevention System) can use a combination of techniques to filter network traffic

Step-by-step explanation:

  • By checking administrative rulesets: An IPS may use predefined rules or signatures, set by an administrator, to identify and block known attacks or malicious activity.
  • By analyzing traffic patterns: An IPS may use machine learning or other techniques to analyze the patterns of network traffic in order to identify and block unusual or suspicious activity.
  • By checking incoming requests: An IPS may examine each incoming network request and compare it against a set of rules or signatures to identify and block malicious traffic.
  • By analyzing specific user groups: An IPS may also use information about specific user groups, such as which users or devices are on the network, to identify and block malicious activity.
