Network intrusion detection and prevention tools
We are going thru an IRS audit and are being asked what network intrusion tools we use. We currently have a hardware firwall Cisco ASA 5505. Are there built in tools such as logging that we can use for network intrusion viewing? Or is there another piece of hardware that we need. I can poke around the firewall but I am not Cisco certified or CCNA by any means.

Intrusion detection is really not the FW role but if you are looking at ASA mgmt aspect in such attempt the audit trail do are important aspect as already in the hardening practices. Maybe good to know the threat protection for ASA in ver 8 above
