Thank you, Warpseh and DaveHowe. &nbsp;<br />
The reason to have this question reopened was that I have asked to split the points as the information from both of you were very helpful. Sorry about the confusion and hopefully to get your help again when I have questions (for sure there'll be alot).<br />
Thanks again and have a wonderful weekend!<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
Every day from IDS, I can see some attacks, such as password_change_failed, failed_login-account_locke<wbr />d_out, failed_login-bad_username_<wbr />or_passwor<wbr />d, and stream_DoS. <br />
<br />
The source IP address is 0.0.0.0.<br />
<br />
What's that supposed to mean? Did someone make his IP address up as 0.0.0.0?<br />
<br />
Thanks

Source IP address: 0.0.0.0 ?

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.

Security

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.
