Suricata: open source network security engine built with Sovereignty in mind?
Talk by Victor Julien
Suricata is an open source (GPLv2) network security engine built by an international team. In this talk I will explain what Suricata is and how it can help you secure your networks. I will go into how Suricata is organized and funded by a non-profit: the OISF.
I will explain how the history of the project as an independent project now helps position it well for a world where more and more regions and countries care about sovereignty in their tech stacks. I hope to have feedback and discussion about the position of Open Source in general and OISF/Suricata specifically in today’s changing world. Hence the question mark in the title.
