What is Suricata?

The Suricata engine is highly proficient in real-time intrusion detection (IDS), inline intrusion prevention (IPS), network security monitoring (NSM), and offline packet capture (pcap) processing. It effectively scrutinizes network traffic through a well-defined and extensive set of rules and signature languages, enhanced by sophisticated Lua scripting capabilities that facilitate the detection of complex threats. Its seamless compatibility with standard input and output formats, such as YAML and JSON, allows for easy integration with a variety of tools, including popular SIEMs, Splunk, Logstash/Elasticsearch, Kibana, and other database systems. The continuous development of Suricata is fueled by a dynamic community dedicated to improving security, usability, and efficiency. Moreover, the project is overseen and supported by the Open Information Security Foundation (OISF), a non-profit organization committed to promoting the sustained growth and success of Suricata as an open-source project. This dedication not only guarantees the software's reliability but also fosters a culture of community contributions and collaborative efforts. Ultimately, the vibrant ecosystem surrounding Suricata serves as a testament to its adaptability and relevance in the ever-evolving landscape of cybersecurity.
