SELKS project Interview

Brought to you by: System76

Open Source | Stamus Networks

Stamus Networks believes in the innovative power and flexibility that Open Source Software posses. It also offers independence and great adaptability — critical when building security products you can trust. But taking from the community is not enough if you want more common good to emerge. This is why Stamus Networks makes its best to contribute back to the Open Source idea.

The main part of our contribution back to Open Source is our two projects SELKS, a live and installable ISO implementing a ready to use Suricata IDS/IPS, and Scirius, a web interface dedicated to Suricata ruleset management.

SELKS is both Live and installable Network Security Management ISO based on Debian implementing and focusing on a complete and ready to use Suricata IDS/IPS ecosystem with its own graphic rule manager.

From start to analysis of IDS/IPS and NSM events in 30 sec.
