Re: [tor-relays] Intrusion Prevention System Software - Snort or Suricata or no IPS at all

Our implementation of suricata is a little different. We've got one as IPS (just few rules) and second as IDS (all rules (block of rules) are switched on). In the log of IDS we determine which chains should be filtered and then we filter them one by one on IPS. The main thing is to not to cut of any of the customers (in our case).

Suricata allows direct access via the Tor network, Snort's website gave me multiple failed Captchas before I could access anything. I'm going to do some further research before I even think about implementing anything.

How does one detect false positives when running an IPS? Do you just frequently check the alerts and change the rules when necessary?

Fixed that for you. ;-)

Stating that I oppose the idea of IPS as means of automatic censorship
of Tor exit nodes is part of the discussion.
