Security Settings
The Security Setting page enables intrusion detection (ID), a type of security 
management system for computers and networks. An ID system gathers and 
analyzes information from various areas within a computer or a network to identify 
possible security breaches, which include both intrusions (attacks from outside the 
organization) and misuse (attacks from within the organization). ID uses vulnerability 
assessment (sometimes referred to as scanning), which is a technology developed 
to assess the security of a computer system or network. 
Click on "Network Settings" followed by “Security Settings."
