How Does Cisco IPS Work?

Question

How does it work? Does it typically have predefined patterns of trusted or malicious activity? Is it actually a category of firewall techniques? I am more curious about Cisco than I am about other products..

Cisco IPS basically uses "signatures" which are nothing more than regular expressions.
