CA HIPS is a Host Based Intrusion Prevention System in which managed agents are deployed on individual hosts to be protected by the HIPS and controlled by the centralized console. It is possible to trigger faults in the kernel driver (kmxids.sys) used by the protection agent by sending certain malformed IP packets.
