I would like to congratulate the fine people at OISF that have been working on the new Suricata IDS engine!
Suricata

Im looking forward to read the code and see what new approaches and thoughts they have on Intrusion Detection. I hope this will be positive to the community and wish them all the best! And hopefully I will be able to contribute in any form or way…

Thanks to all in the OISF team!

My notes to last issue of the HAKIN9 magazine…

Posted in Information, OpenSourceSoftware, Security, Snort at 7:39 pm by Edward Bjarte Fjellskål

Magazine: HAKIN9
Issue: Windows FE Forensic Live CD 2009-06
Article: Unified Communications Intrusion Detection Using Snort
Author: Mark Rubino

The article has some VoIP snort rules from SIPVicious which I “fixed” and blogged about awhile ago.

My recommendation is to review the rules from SIPVicious if you choose to use them.

I was out at a customer the other day, and opening my browser I saw that my tab with my blog was not loading:

Sonicwall b0rked

For some reason, Sonicwall categorize my site as p0rn…

Thanks you Sonicwall - This is an eye opener for me.
Need to review my blog posts…

Sorry for that everyone :)
