Am I the only one that finds the equation HIPS = anti-malware a bit biased ? Anti-malware is just a fraction of what an HIPS should do, and it's the part which is similar to what antiviruses already do. In fact, many of those products have little difference from your common antivirus suite. An HID/PS on the other hand should be broader, encompassing also detection of attack activities that have nothing to do with malware being deployed in a drive-by fashion.
