Port Scan Attack Detector 2.1.1 (Default branch)

The Port Scan Attack Detector (psad) is a collection of three system daemons that are designed to work with the Linux iptables firewalling code to detect port scans and other suspect traffic. It features a set of highly configurable danger thresholds (with sensible defaults), verbose alert messages, email alerting, DShield reporting, and automatic blocking of offending IP addresses. Psad incorporates many of the packet signatures included in Snort to detect various kinds of suspicious scans, and implements the same passive OS fingerprinting algorithm used by p0f. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
A new feature whereby iptables log data can be acquired just by parsing an existing file (/var/log/messages by default) that is written to by syslog was added. Better installation support was provided for various Linux distributions, including Fedora 8 and Ubuntu. Situations where either the /var/log/psad/fwdata file or the /var/log/messages file (whichever syslog is writing iptables log messages to) gets rotated are now handled automatically.Image

NAME
Encode::Detect::Detector - Detects the encoding of data SYNOPSIS
use Encode::Detect::Detector; my $charset = detect($octets); my $d = new Encode::Detect::Detector; $d->handle($octets); $d->handle($more_octets); $d->end; my $charset = $d->getresult; DESCRIPTION
This module provides an interface to Mozilla's universal charset detector, which detects the charset used to encode data. METHODS
$charset = Encode::Detect::Detector->detect($octets) Detect the charset used to encode the data in $octets and return the charset's name. Returns undef if the charset cannot be determined with sufficient confidence. $d = Encode::Detect::Detector->new() Creates a new "Encode::Detect::Detector" object and returns it. $d->handle($octets) Provides an additional chunk of data to be examined by the detector. May be called multiple times. Returns zero on success, nonzero if a memory allocation failed. $d->eof Informs the detector that there is no more data to be examined. In many cases, this is necessary in order for the detector to make a decision on the charset. $d->reset Resets the detector to its initial state. $d->getresult Returns the name of the detected charset or "undef" if no charset has (yet) been decided upon. May be called at any time. SEE ALSO
