Manual detection is usually done by checking the log files and system for evidence of intrusions.

They are designed on statistical modeling of traffic and application data to detect anomalies that happen. These can be either host based or network based. If is it host based on a single machine only it is person intrusion detection system else it is a network intrusion detection system. The types of alerts generated by an 'IDS' is determined by how serious the intrusion is. It could generate a log of the relevant information to a file or data base or can even generate an email or a message to a pager or mobile phone.
