Has anyone ever used a product called IDS Informer made by Blade Software? I am currently looking at different methods/products that can test the functionality and response of production IDS sensors.
Another way is to use Apsend or SendIP to craft your own packets/signatures of "mock" attacks and automatically run them all at once using a shell or perl script that calls tcpreplay. It's basically the "poor man's" way of doing what Blade does. However, it can be tedious to create all those crafted signatures unless you have a good "prefabbed" database handy. Then, of course, you have to issue of the accuracy and reliability of the crafted signatures. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ethical Hacking at the InfoSec Institute.
