Résumé
The incredible low maintenance costs of Snort combined with its powerful security features make it one of the fastest growing IDSs within corporate IT departments. Snort 2.0 Intrusion Detection is the first book dealing with the Snort IDS and is written by a member of Snort.org. Readers will receive valuable insight to the code base of Snort and in-depth tutorials of complex installation, configuration, and troubleshooting scenarios.
