WN25-00-000120 - Windows Server 2025 must have a host-based intrusion detection and prevention service (IDPS) installed.
Information
A properly configured host-based intrusion detection system (HIDS) or host-based intrusion prevention system (HIPS) provides another level of defense against unauthorized access to critical servers. With proper configuration and logging enabled, such a system can stop and/or alert for many attempts to gain unauthorized access to resources.NOTE: Nessus has not performed this check. Please review the benchmark to ensure target compliance.
Solution
Install a host-based IDPS on each server.See Also
