Post IDS/IPs Engineering.


Hello.
Who is IDS/IPS engineer? For example, if anyone that can manage an IDS like Suricata-IDS the he/she is an IDS/IPS Engineer? A tool like suricata-IDS is easy to install and manage and I want to know manage it can make anyone an IDS/IPS engineer? Or he/she must know how to develop it or...

Thank you.

Well for manage a IDS such as snort,suricata, bro or aiengine you need to understand how to write rules and in some cases develop some C code. You can write your own plugin for Snort and probably for Suricata is similar.

On the other hand, you have front ends for manage this systems.
