About Snort
Snort is a network intrusion detection system that performs real-time traffic analysis and packet logging to detect attacks. It is typically installed on Linux servers or containers and administered through configuration files, a CLI, or a built-in web interface. In practice it rewards a little setup effort with long-term independence, transparent behavior, and a community that documents real-world deployments.
