Suricata Training Tour

Mon, 29 Sep 2014 09:25:26 +0000

After a lot of preparations, it’s finally going to happen: official Suricata trainings!

In the next couple of months I’ll be doing at least 3 sessions: a home match (Amsterdam), a workshop in Luxembourg and a session at DeepSec. Next to this, we’re planning various US based sessions on the East coast and West coast.

I’m really looking forward to doing these sessions. Other than the official content, there will be plenty of room for questions and discussions.

Suricata 2.0 and beyond

Tue, 25 Mar 2014 14:37:46 +0000

Today I finally released Suricata 2.0. The 2.0 branch opened in December 2012. In the little over a year that it’s development lasted, we have closed 183 tickets. We made 1174 commits, with the following stats:

582 files changed, 94782 insertions(+), 63243 deletions(-)

So, a significant update! In total, 17 different people made commits. I’m really happy with how much code and features were contributed. When starting Suricata this was what I really hoped for, and it seems to be working!

Today we’ve finally released the first public version of Suricata, the Open Source IDS/IPS developed by the Open Information Security Foundation. With a team of great people we’ve been working really hard to get this ready. Please see the full announcement here.

As it’s lead developer I’m very much interested in getting feedback, bug reports and such. We run our ticket system in a redmine install at https://redmine.openinfosecfoundation.org/ If you have any feedback, please register an account and let us know what you think.
