Sguil
Sguil (pronounced sgweel) is an analyst console for
network security monitoring
Sguil
consist of three main components, a plugin to
barnyard (op_sguil),
a GUI server (sguild), and a GUI client (sguil.tk).
A sguil system
is composed of a single sguil server and an arbitrary number
of
sguil network sensors. The sensors perform all the
security monitoring tasks and feed information back to the
server
on a regular basis. The server coordinates this
information,
stores it in a database and communicates with sguil clients
running on administrators' desktop machines.
Features include:
- Provides a graphical interface to snort, an open source
intrusion detection system
- Ties your IDS alerts into a database of TCP/IP sessions,
full content packet logs and other information
- Functions as an analysis interface (has no snort sensor or
rule management capabilities)
