The Story of Snort
gRitteR writes "HNS is running a story of Martin Roesch, the creator of Snort where he tells the entire story of Snort in his words. Roesch covers seven years of development that made this tool one of the most important security software titles ever developed. It's interesting to get all the details on how Snort was initially conceived as well as how it is expected to develop further now after Check Point acquired Sourcefire. There are many technical details and interesting tidbits not available before."
errr... an absolutely amazing quote in the link above : " If I'd known then that it would be my most famous accomplishment in life, I might have worked on it another day or two and added some more options."
