stratosphereips / StratosphereLinuxIPS
Slips, a free software behavioral Python intrusion prevention system (IDS/IPS) that uses machine learning to detect malicious behaviors in the network traffic. Stratosphere Laboratory, AIC, FEL, CVUT in Prague.
Why this job: works in the areas we cover, but does not say which job it does

What it does
- Behavioral Intrusion Prevention. Slips acts as a powerful system to prevent intrusions based on detecting malicious behaviors in network traffic using machine learning.
- Modularity. Slips is written in Python and is highly modular with different modules performing specific detections in the network traffic.
- Targeted Attacks and Command & Control Detection. It places a strong emphasis on identifying targeted attacks and command and control channels in network traffic.
- Traffic Analysis Flexibility. Slips can analyze network traffic in real-time, PCAP files, and network flows from popular tools like Suricata, Zeek/Bro, and Argus.
- Threat Intelligence Updates. Slips continuously updates threat intelligence files and databases, providing relevant detections as updates occur.
