Snort 2.9.11.0 end-of-life reminder

This is a reminder that SNORTⓇ version 2.9.11.0 will be shut down tomorrow, Jan. 10.

We first notified users that this version of Snort was reaching its end of life in October as the number of users began to wane. We encouraged everyone to update to the latest version of Snort to avoid any service interruptions.

We are working on revising Snort’s end-of-life policy for other versions going forward. We will begin to shut down versions of Snort that make up 10 percent or less of our downloads or superseded versions have been around for five years, which ever comes first. We will release more details about this in the future.
