Dear Team... I have used few IDS in my network, doesn't found them working in the way i wanted.
If you have a problem with your stomach and take an aspirin, is the aspirin to blame ?
My requirement is when there is a machine / laptop are connected to my network, which is not updated with the current Patches, Security updates which is being approved needs to be reported to the Sys admin and immediate necessary steps would be taken.
