What are IDS and IPS, and how do they differ?

"IDS stands for intrusion detection system, while IPS stands for intrusion prevention system. IDS only detects the intrusion and requires that the network administrator take steps to remediate it. IPS, on the other hand, detects the intrusion and also takes some predetermined actions to prevent it."

When responding to a technical question like this one, start by defining each of the terms you are asked about. Then follow up by describing their differences and similarities. You can finish your answer by talking about how these concepts are used in your profession. You may also want to provide an example of how you used them in prior positions.
