7. Richard wants to modify his current network IDS solution to allow his sensor to stop unwanted activity turning it into an IPS. Richard should replace his passive TAP with an to allow his sensor to?

Richard should replace his passive TAP (Test Access Point) with an inline TAP or a network bridge. This will allow his intrusion detection system (IDS) to actively intercept and analyze traffic, enabling it to take immediate action against unwanted activity and function as an intrusion prevention system (IPS). By doing so, the sensor can block malicious traffic in real time while still monitoring network activity.
