Question to the group. Since this is IDS aka Intrusion Detection, is there
any interest in reviewing captured cracker tool kits?
I've captured plenty over the past few years. :-)
I've offered the toolkits to CERT, they said "no thanks; we have probably
already seen them" So..........................
Who else might be interested?
NO, I don't want to just post it to a news group. Lets not debate the pros
and cons of posting, I get enough e-mail as it is!!!!! thank you.
I'm looking for groups that want to *review* the tool kits and post
summary information that might aid sites in the future.
I've already gotten all the milage I can out of them so I'm offering
them to other researchers/security profesionals.
Gene- your research group would be welcome to them, we go back a long
way and your reputation has always been flawless.

Thought for the week:
Vince Lombardi said "The best defence is a strong offence" maybe its
time to start hiring bounty hunters to track down computer criminals
instead of spending all the time/effort on firewalling....
