Yes, Grseurity integrit PaX which can prevent buffer overflow attacks and some more useful features. 

In order to prevent attacks, a good host based IPS need a secureOS to support it. On linux, a frame work named 
LSM(lsm.immunix.org) is very useful to implement a secure Linux OS which already in kernel 2.5.x.

Good comment.

and I think Grsecurity(http://www.grsecurity.net/) is good too, for linux.

additionally, I have a question what's the difference between SeucreOS and 
Host based IPS and LIDS and Grsecurity?


Thanks.

For linux, LIDS(Linux Intrusion Detection System, www.lids.org), an open 
source GPLed kernel enhancement software,  can prevent file system from 
being modified, network setting from being changed, and even prevent worm 
spreading and more.  In this case, LIDS could be treated as a Host base 
IPS..:-)
