It was developed by the Open Information Security Foundation (OISF). A beta version was released in December 2009, with the first standard release following in July 2010.[1][2][3]

Features

Like other IDSes, Suricata provides threat detection capabilities. Like a firewall, Suricata provides traffic filtering and monitoring, but Suricata provides network administrators with the ability to write and enforce detection rules.[2]

Suricata is able to detect common attack vectors such as port scanning, denial-of-service, pass-the-hash, and brute-force attacks.[2]

Typically, a major update of Suricata is released every 3 months.[2]

Ruleset

Suricata uses a ruleset to perform detection and threat analysis.[2]
