Snort is more about intrusion detection and network monitoring. What you are
looking for is an intrusion prevention system.

I think snort rules might cover both of these. Great firewall IDS.

Hi Philip,

 

My Bad should have read more thoroughly Zeus and SpyEye are competing
products working in a similar fashion, uploading IP block list now into our
firewall for both Zeus and SpyEye.


Certainly do not want to be victim of a bot net take over or attack.. thanks
for the heads up

@Peter (Atkin)


The link I shared specifically tracks Zeus NOT SpyEye!

Here is the link sent earlier: https://zeustracker.abuse.ch/index.php

And this is what I posted:
**************************************************************
Zeus is one of the most successful financial botnets in the history of
botnets.
Its very sophisticated and hard to detect let alone decisively deal with.
It was has been used to hit mainly financial institutions but the recent
trend is hitting any corporate organization.

Why should you worry?

There is a command and control (C&C) server in Rwanda and its been there
since last year.
https://zeustracker.abuse.ch/index.php
The ISP serving this server happens to be MTN Rwandacell.

Our UGCERT could start watching for any traffic terminating to that server
(IP: 41.186.24.58)  just in case that turns out to be the regional C&C .

For the CIOs, check your network logs just in case...

Cheers,

****************************************************************

 

The links you have provided however track SpyEye and indeed there isn't any
SpyEye C&C on that server in Rwanda.

 

I think your were using looking for the wrong thing here...
