hi, im testing ossec so that later on i can deploy it over our production 
server. Im wondering with lots of question one of which is how will ossec 
detect the brute force attack over ssh. I will clarify more: lets say an 
attacker uses brute force attack over ssh service, attacker succeeds after 
just 10 attempts with username "root" and password "root1234". Now how will 
ossec detect this intrusion. It does give the report from auth.log 
regarding failed login attempts but will it treat successful login from 
brute force as legitimate one or not? How will active response will react 
over this scenario?

thanks


regards
sabin
