Snort and Neural Networks

Summary: Computer science graduate Jacson Rodrigues Correia da Silva built an implementation, as his final degree project, that connects the Snort intrusion detection system with JavaNNS so Snort can be used with an artificial neural network. His work is published at a Google Pages link and written in Portuguese, and he is now pursuing a Master's degree.

Why it matters: The write-up gives no performance data, no detection results and no deployment detail, so a security leader has nothing here to judge whether pairing Snort with a neural network improves detection over the rules alone.
