Hi List, I'd like to ask you to recommend some IDS I could test. Our company is about 100-120 PCs large at the moment, that could increase to up to 400 in the near future. I am currently trying eTrust IDS v1.5 but it reports many false alarms, also it just reports the half of the traffic as 'other protocols' so I really can't get much useful information from that. Is Snort's software any good? It is free, and that's just nice. I was thinking to try it one of these days when I'll have a bit of spare time. Should I bother with the Windows version or I should just put it on a Unix machine? Any other tips, software that can do traffic logging/analysis/intrusion detection? Thanks. PS: Please, CC me the answers as I don't have much time to read mails usually so I might delete it along with the many other mailing list mails if I'm hurrying.
