Yep.

Try Axent's ITA- Intruder alert.
This features realtime detection based on rules defined (also predefined
rules available) by the administrator.  As far as I know this is the
only product available that allows a user to create both passive and
active policies.

It is also multiplatform, and all agents can be controlled from a
central box..on unix or NT.
