New section around VPS? #44

Closed binarymist closed 7 years ago

binarymist commented 7 years ago

I'd love to see and be able to contribute to a VPS section. Items like OSSEC are really Host IDS rather than Network IDS. There are also other offerings very similar to Snyk that are free and open source.

Let me know if you'd be keen and I'll sub a PR for all / some of these issues?

VPS is Virtual Private Server or something eles ? What's the difference between VPS and Host IDS / Network IDS?

You can send PR. I'm more likely to add to current section.

Re: VPS, yeah. It's just that many items apply more specifically to VPS/host/machine, than network, which usually has many VPS/host/machines. For example Docker lives within a VPS/host/machine, rather than a network, which the VPS/host/machine lives in.

Ex: Firewalls can be network based or VPS/host based With IDS, IPS you have: NIDS, NIPS for Network HIDS, HIPS for VPS/Host

If the sections stay small, then there may not be to much of a problem, but if it grows, you will probably want to tease the Network apart from VPS/host as they are in many cases exclusive.

Yes, I think so.
