Greetings,

Silicon Defense is please to announce the availability of Spade version 021026.1, the latest version of its statistical anomaly detector for Snort. This is what has changed:

+ ICMP traffic now analyzed for anomalies
  + dead-dest detector type now looks for ICMP traffic to unused IP
    addresses
  + new odd-typecode detector type looks for ICMP packets with rare type
    and code fields
+ new odd-port-dest detector type looks for sources connecting to an
    unusual destination for a destination port (among destination ports
    that are observed to have a predictable set of destinations)
+ you can now exclude certain reports on a Spade-wide basis in addition to
    on a detector-specific basis (add Xdips, Xdports, Xsips, and/or
    Xsports on the main Spade configuration line)
+ dead-dest will no longer report on broadcast IPs
+ sped Spade up a little through some optimizations
+ spade.conf updated for new detection capabilities
+ Spade log file configured in the distributed spade.conf is now called
    spade.log (instead of log.txt) for clarity

As you can see, there's a few new detection capabilities in this version. You can download it and learn more at:

Enjoy and happy Spading,
