If you are open to moving away from 'alert browsers' and can commit to
the benefits of NSM [0, 1].

Sorry if this is a FAQ, but, can anyone suggest alternatives to ACID for
analysis of SNORT data? I have a couple problems with ACID. The first
being scalability. In our deployement of SNORT we seem to pick up
10k-20k alerts per week. ACID absolutely *crawls* when working on such a
dataset. Granted, we've got it running on an old low-end box, so I
recognize that is certainly part of the problem, but ACID just doesn't
seem to cut it. Also, it appears that ACID is dead. It never reached 1.0
status, and in fact the last release of ACID was almost 2 years ago.

So, are there any active, open-source projects that are developing
something similar to ACID but that might, perhaps be a better
alternative to ACID?
