The snort mailing list includes announcements and discussion of a leading open-source IDPS.
A potent open-source intrusion detection and prevention system (IDS and IPS), SNORT offers real-time network traffic analysis and data packet tracking. To find potentially malicious activities, SNORT employs a rule-based language that integrates anomaly, protocol, and signature inspection techniques. Network administrators can detect Common Gateway Interface (CGI) assaults, buffer overflows, stealth port scans, and denial-of-service (DoS) and distributed DoS (DDoS) attacks using SNORT. A set of rules developed by SNORT characterize malicious network activity, spot malicious packets, and notify users. SNORT is a piece of open-source software that is available for both personal and business use. Which network traffic should be gathered and what should happen when malicious packets are detected are determined by the SNORT rule language.
