Sid 8000

E-mail Print PDF

Somewhat off-topic for our usual posts here, we're approaching Signature ID 2008000 (I just committed 2007990!). An interesting milestone I think. We have at last count 6,235 active signatures in the main rulesets. That's not counting another couple thousand in the dynamic rulesets and such.

 

Many over the last 6 years have come and gone and generally we don't reuse SIDs. But the 8,000 mark signifies a lot of work by the Emerging team and the community. That many rules have come, been tested, some tossed out, but the vast majority staying put and doing a lot of good in a LOT of places.

 

While milestones in this sense don't mean much, just more rules. I'd like to use it as a reminder to say thanks to the community.  Lots of good has come from your submitted rules, ideas, samples, intelligence, and most importantly false positive reports. 

 

You rock!
