StillSecure release free version ID/PS-Strata Guard

We are pleased to announce that StillSecure (www.stillsecure.com, www.stillsecure.org) has made available for general release a freeware version of our award winning Intrusion Detection / Prevention System, Strata Guard.

This version is free to use for individuals and organizations. Strata Guard is a snort based, IDS/IPS that is extremely easy to use with full reporting, automatic updates against the latest attacks, quick tune wizards and false positive reduction.

It can be run in out of band and in-line mode. I invite everyone to test it out for yourselves:

http://www.stillsecure.org

Support is available via message boards on site but full context sensitive help is built in. If you have used Snort before and are looking for something a little more commercially polished or if pure Snort was a little too much to manage, Strata Guard could be perfect for you.

We are grateful to the community for all of the help and support we have received over the years and want to give something back. Enjoy and please let us know your comments.
