OSSEC Host-Based IDS v0.2 available

[Daniel Cid <danielcid () yahoo com br>]

OSSEC HIDS is a self-contained system for Host-based
intrusion detection. It performs log extraction,
integrity checking and health monitoring. All this
information is correlated and analyzed by a single
engine, creating a very powerfull and scalable
detection tool.

As an HIDS, agents need to be installed on every
server/system to be monitored. On each of these
systems, the OSSEC HIDS agent will collect every log
generated (in real time), perform integrity checking
and health monitoring.

These information will be encoded, encrypted and sent
to the OSSEC HIDS analysis server.

On the OSSEC HIDS analysis server, these events will
be compared against a set of "analysis rules", checked
using the "FTS" detection and using a statistical
analysis. The analysis server can also receive syslog
messages remotely (UDP 514) and analyze Snort,
Barnyard and Apache logs (for better correlation).

These new version includes a lot of fixes, new
features and much more detection rules.
