3.10 Viewing the Advisor Data
The Advisor provides a cross-reference between real-time intrusion detection systems attack signatures and the Advisor's knowledge base of vulnerabilities. The Advisor feed has an alert and attack feed. The alert feed contains information about vulnerabilities and viruses. The attack feed lists the exploits associated with vulnerabilities. The Advisor data is updated on a regular basis if you have opted for the optional Advisor data subscription service.
The supported intrusion detection systems are listed in Section 9.0, Advisor Usage and Maintenance.
