Snort
This network intrusion detection and prevention system excels at traffic analysis and packet logging on IP networks.
Through protocol analysis, content searching, and various pre-processors, Snort detects thousands of worms, vulnerability exploit attempts, port scans, and other suspicious behavior.
Snort uses a flexible rule-based language to describe traffic that it should collect or pass, and a modular detection engine.
