Welcome! You are invited to join a webinar: Suricata Webinar - Filestore improvements with Eric Leblond. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the webinar.

Everything you wanted to know about Suricata file extraction but never dared to ask. The Suricata filestore keyword was introduced in 2011. It allows rule writers and practitioners to set up file extraction on a per-rule basis, complementing systematic file extraction that can be activated in the configuration file.  With this keyword, file extraction can be triggered on specific conditions using the flexibility of the rules language. And extraction works on multiple application layers, such as HTTP, HTTP2, NFS, SMB, FTP, SMTP … This keyword – combined with other file matching ones such as filemagic – provides a really powerful mechanism to limit disk storage to only a selected subset of the files exchanged on the network. While the user community has long suffered from the limitations imposed by the original design – issues we identified over a decade ago – we can finally enjoy the benefits of this new fix.  The purpose of this webinar is to explain in detail the file store feature and describe the recent improvements that have been made making it one of the most interesting new features of Suricata.

September Superheroes Roadshow #OISF

Could super-humans such as Captain Marvel or Superman, and qualities such as super-strength, actually exist in reality? Could super-suits of armour be made, like Batman’s body shield or Iron Man’s AI human-interface body? And what are the chances of there being, on some far planet, alien life – and if so, how could we ever make contact, or navigate our way there?
