This talk will present how Suricata, an open source IDS and NSM engine can provide high performance matching of IOCs on live traffic using a feature named dataset. It will also cover how the produced NSM events can be used to do IOC matching on past traffic data and will present the IOCMite tool that link Suricata and MISP.
Suricata is an high performance open source IDS and NSM engine that exist since 2009. The IDS function has evolved over the years and ,among other features, the dataset one has been developed to be able to match on a list of elements.
We will present how the feature is designed and how it is really convenient to do matching of IOCs on the live network traffic as well as building network wide patient zero database for metadata. We will also cover how the NSM produced data can be used to do matching on past traffic when new IOCs are added.
And finally we will present IOCMite an open source tool linking MISP and Suricata in both direction using the dynamic nature of dataset.
