Hello
I am doing my final year in university on testing the effectiveness of snort for my project. I have successfully installed Snort with php,mysql and base on a Windows XP Pro machine and it all works fine.
I need a little bit of help in testing snort. Some ideas of how to possibly seeing if such and such a scan will be picked up or what happens when a trojan is in the network will it pick it up etc. would be nice.
At the moment all im relying on is people just generally browsing the network and internet and trying to make sense of the alerts that have been generated. Ideally id like to come up with ways that i could attempt to attack my network to test if snort will pick it up and thus if it does can I improve the rules or make new rules to make it more efficient.
Any help you guys can give would be great.
Thanks
