Updating the IDP Signature Database Manually Overview

Juniper Networks regularly updates the predefined attack database and makes it available on the Juniper Networks website. This database includes attack object groups that you can use in Intrusion Detection and Prevention (IDP) policies to match traffic against known attacks. Although you cannot create, edit, or delete predefined attack objects, you can use the CLI to update the list of attack objects that you can use in IDP policies. After downloading the security package, you must install the package to update the security database with the newly downloaded updates from the Staging folder in your device.
