Cisco, Community and Open Source
In July we told you about Sourcefire’s agreement to be acquired by Cisco, and today that acquisition has closed – we are now one company. This also means that we are also now one community, and Cisco has reiterated its commitment to maintaining our innovation and support of Snort, ClamAV and other open source projects, as well as its own projects. As Marty Roesch wrote on our corporate blog:
I’m also happy to report that there will be no changes to how our communities are run or our communications, including mailing lists, snort.org, clamav.net or social media sites. Please visit the corporate blog for more details and, as always, reach out to me with questions. I will still be your community manager and I look forward to many more years of being a part of this community.
“I can tell you with certainty that this is a great match for Sourcefire, for Cisco and, ultimately, for our customers, partners and open source communities… Beyond the technology, one of the things that is important to me is that Cisco and Sourcefire both share key values that transcend our company names, HQ locations and number of employees. “
I’m also happy to report that there will be no changes to how our communities are run or our communications, including mailing lists, snort.org, clamav.net or social media sites. Please visit the corporate blog for more details and, as always, reach out to me with questions. I will still be your community manager and I look forward to many more years of being a part of this community.

A Continued Commitment to Open Source
A Continued Commitment to Open Source
Earlier today Cisco announced a definitive agreement to acquire Sourcefire.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

“I created Snort in 1998 to provide value-added security solutions for open source and address big problems that no one else could solve. We later expanded that open source commitment to ClamAV… The best news in all of this, especially for our partners, customers and open source users, is that Cisco is committed to accelerate the realization of our vision into the market. We’ll be able to more quickly innovate, develop and provide products and technologies that continue to solve your biggest security challenges. And not just for commercial and government solutions – they are committed to continued innovation and support of our open source projects, too."

Snort FAQ is open for community involvement!
Following the success of our ClamAV FAQ being placed on Github, we decided to do the same thing to the Snort FAQ in hopes that it will make the content available to community users to submit content to and make it easily manageable.
So, now available: https://github.com/vrtadmin/snort-faq/blob/master/README.md
The reason we put it on Github is it makes it simple to edit (in Markdown format), it's easy to audit, it's easy to clone and import, etc. When we did this with the ClamAV FAQ, we found it made the content super easy to keep up to date, allows for several users to work on it and allows for community involvement.
So this is what we are hoping you will do. I took the old FAQ that was on http://www.snort.org, converted it to Markdown and committed it to Github.
Now we can add things like "Having a problem capturing TCP traffic? Have you tried "-k none" in your testing?"
So, have at it. We'll review all content and approve it as it comes in through your pull requests.

The Vulnerability Research Team is hiring, we want YOU.
Alain wrote a post this morning over on the ClamAV blog, so I thought I'd do the same here on the Snort.org blog and tell people we're hiring.
Have you ever written a Snort rule? or wanted to?
Like messing about in the newest vulnerabilities or malware? Like writing exploits? Enjoy challenges like "Here's a file that crashes -application-, figure out why"? Want to work with us to design what is next in Snort? ClamAV? Razorback? Or any of the above topics?
We want you.
Alain talked about what he liked about the VRT, so in addition to those, let me follow the same lines and talk about what I like.
Our currently open job listings are here. But that's not even the complete list. We're a growing company, with lots of projects under our purview, and we need people, both junior and senior to be able to fill these roles.
If you like Snort, or ClamAV, or think you can learn, and want to learn, shoot us your resume at research [at] sourcefire [dot] com.
Challenge yourself. Challenge us.

We want you.
Alain talked about what he liked about the VRT, so in addition to those, let me follow the same lines and talk about what I like.
- The smartest people I've ever met all in one room. We get to bounce ideas off of each other, figure out strange ways of fixing a problem, and come up with a solution. That means anything from controlling EIP to how to write a rule to compare two things from two different streams using flowbits.
- We pride ourselves in doing things not only better than the competition, but in the open too.
- We work hard. We play hard. For instance, today, during break, we played kickball (remember that?) with a big yoga ball, and the ball got stuck in a tree. Yours truly climbed said tree and retrieved the ball. Then I came back inside and pulled apart some malware. Beware of nerf darts, RFI readers, and the 6lb sand-filled ball of doom.
- Like working in an environment where it doesn't matter how you wind up at the result, as long as you get the correct results? Tired of being told what OS to use? Like debating the merits of C, perl, or ruby? Have a strong opinion between bash and zch?
- If there's a problem that we don't have a solution for, we invent one. Last thing we invented resulted in patents that have our people's name on them.
- Working on next years projects this year.
- Being the best.
- When you write protection for a vulnerability or malware here, you cover IDS/IPS, a NGFW, and two antivirus systems. You protect networks from endpoint to border and into the cloud.
- If you gag when you hear the word cloud or synergy.
- Vegetarian? Paleo? Meat eater? There is someone here that will sympathize with you.
- Working for the fastest growing company in security

One Year of the Snort.org Blog
The other day passed the one year milestone of this blog being created. So I thought I'd reflect a bit on how it's helped me, and ask you, the community, if it's done the same for you.
When I took over the Snort Community Manager position here at Sourcefire, I put out a news post that asked what the pain points were for the Snort project, suggestions on how to improve things, and whatever else people felt like writing me with. (By the way, you can always write me at joel@snort.org.) You all came up with some great stuff, and I've been implementing some of the ideas both in the community aspect (some people complained it was hard to find documentation and things like that) and in the engine itself (lots of improvements made, more coming).
One of the ideas that I wanted to bring to the table when I took over was to start a blog. I wanted to start a Snort Blog, revive the ClamAV blog, and start a Sourcefire corporate blog. The first two I accomplished quickly and the last was also implemented this year. I wanted to have one place to get your news and information about Snort and one place to get your information about ClamAV. If any changes were made to Snort.org, community happenings, improvements, etc.
This blog has allowed me to quickly and easily get information out to the community, as well as provide a forum for feedback to allow people to communicate easily with me. The other thing it provides is to give a place for our developers to directly speak to you and explain new features of Snort (which we will be doing in the coming weeks about Snort 2.9.2).
But, let me hear from you. What do you think? Has the blog helped? What can I do to make things better? What suggestions do you have?

ClamAV Blog is back!
If you are into OpenSource Security products, and you are reading this blog, you might be interested in another product that we have from Sourcefire, ClamAV. ClamAV is our OpenSource Anti-virus scanner that is available for free at http://www.clamav.net.
However, what you may not know is that we have a blog for ClamAV as well. http://blog.clamav.net
So, to round it up, if it's:
Snort -- http://blog.snort.org
ClamAV -- http://blog.clamav.net
I will try and keep these three blogs updated to the fullest with the most appropriate content in each of their respective points of information.
Thanks!
