Answer Description

Signature updates in an IDS/IPS are vital to maintain the system's effectiveness against new threats. As attack methodologies evolve, the system must be updated with information about these new threats to accurately detect and potentially prevent them. Novel software updates would pertain to general software enhancements rather than threat intelligence. Configuration changes may improve system performance but do not directly relate to new threat intelligence. Rule adjustments generally involve customizing how the system responds to detected threats, not updating its threat detection capabilities.
