How does host-based intrusion detection system (HIDS) contribute to endpoint security in a smart grid environment?

A host-based intrusion detection system (HIDS) contributes to endpoint security in a smart grid environment by monitoring the internal activity of individual devices, such as servers, workstations, and control system components, to detect malicious behavior that might bypass network-based security controls. Endpoint security refers to securing individual devices that connect to the network. A HIDS operates on a specific host or endpoint, analyzing system logs, file integrity, and process activity to identify suspicious actions. Unlike network-based intrusion detection systems (NIDS), which....
