What does Snort stand for?
Snort is an open-source Network Intrusion Detection and Prevention System (NIDS/NIPS) developed by Cisco. It monitors network traffic in real time to detect and prevent a wide range of malicious activities, from simple port scans to sophisticated cyberattacks. As one of the most widely used and respected tools in cybersecurity, Snort provides organizations with the ability to analyze network packets, identify suspicious patterns, and take immediate action to protect critical infrastructure.
Snort combines the benefits of open-source flexibility with enterprise-grade performance, making it a preferred choice for both research and production environments. It’s used globally by network administrators, security professionals, and government agencies to strengthen network defenses and maintain compliance standards.
