Cisco Talos released the newest rule set for SNORTⓇ Tuesday morning.
This update includes a new rule to protect against the IcedID banking trojan by preventing the malware from making an outbound connection to its command and control (C2).
Here's a breakdown of today's rule release:
| Shared object rules | Modified shared object rules | New rules | Modified rules |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 5 | 13 | 17 |
Talos has added and modified multiple rules in the browser-ie, file-java, file-other, malware-cnc, policy-other and server-webapp rule sets to provide coverage for emerging threats from these technologies. You can subscribe to Talos' newest rule detection functionality for as low as $29 a year with a personal account. Be sure and see our business pricing as well here.
