Subject: Re: [Snort-users] Snort Rule

Hi
Would I be able to use snort to sniff network traffic and check weather a new installation is transfering large amounts 
of data around the network, that it should not be sending?
Thank you for your help

Hi All,

I am looking for a rule to scan the computer after a new program has been installed and return any alarming results or 
return an "Everything is normal" result.


snort is not the right tool for this... snort only sniffs network traffic and packet capture (aka pcap) files of 
network traffic...
