YIN

Today, we are all aware of the real network intrusion threats. For YIN, protecting its systems against these has become a vital objective. To accomplish this objective YIN uses a lightweight network intrusion detection system (IDS), capable of performing real-time traffic analysis and packet logging on IP networks. It can perform protocol analysis, content searching/matching and can be used to detect a variety of attacks and probes, such as buffer overflows, stealth port scans, CGI attacks, SMB probes, OS fingerprinting attempts, and much more. The IDS uses a flexible rules language to describe traffic that it should collect or pass, as well as a detection engine that utilizes a modular plug-in architecture. The IDS is able to notify YIN's ever-vigilant staff of anything suspicious, so that we may take appropriate action, from keeping an eye on things, to blocking malicious traffic or even contacting the responsible party.
