Greetings List, Does anyone here know where I can find low false positive snort rules? The rules from snort.org are simply bunk. They generate way too many false positives and even false negatives during certain types of events. I am not adverse to purchasing snort rules either, I just need something that works.
snort has signatures to pick up 'dodgy' behaviour. Unfortunately, 'dodgy' differs between my network and yours. You, or someone else should go through the rules and tailor them to your network. I'm sure you can find someone willing to do this on contract.c I would have recommended the bleeding snort sigs, but you'll have to pick and choose the useful ones from there as well. No IDS, or any other system is a magic bullet. Security is hard work.
