Hello Nigel

TCP/IP header covert channels, ICMP covert channels, DNS covert channels,
packet sorting covert channels.


Hello,

I think this is a silly question.  Of all the possible systems you
could use, Snort is probably the easiest to evaluate.  The rules are
open, the code is open, great documentation is included with the
distribution... are you trying to get someone to do your homework for
you?

Sincerely,

Richard
