Re: BASE or Snort Report ???

With sguil replace the word 'excellent' with 'horrid' in regards to the web
interface - It's also a dead project as far as I can tell.

On the topic of vaporware, didn't BASE get dumped some time ago as well?

Two jobs ago I wrote a custom interface using Python/Pylons that had
realtime views and analysis. At my last position I put Snorby in place and
that was a real treat, blew me away with the reports available and
interface. They just released 2.0 which I had been waiting for, but I've
since left that company and I've graduated from dealing with such things.

Chose something that will have room to grow and has, at the minimum, a
current set of interested developers. As a few others have pointed out you
might want to consider using plugins for snort to send alerts or using
syslog to deal with alerts, syslog-ng can handle alerts all on its own with
quite a bit of intelligence. I always liked using a notification system
outside of Snort as there are many other things in the admin world that
require attention. I keep them in a central place with a central syslog-ng
or monitoring system.

Hi all, I need a starting point to enter to Snort world, so I think I
can use BASE or Snort Report to view the traffic logs.

I've used BASE but I'm still fighting with sending alerts by email, I
can setup this feature. And also I've seen some snapshots from Snort
Report.

What web interface do you recommend to me in order to view and receive
critical Snort's alerts by mail ???


Sguil has email functionality and is one of the better (and only real
time?) analyst consoles. Plus, it has an excellent web front end
available as well ;P
