I thought of all sorts of nasty retorts, but I'll refrain from insulting you and simply say, you couldn't possibly be more wrong. And I say this as someone who knows Marty Roesch as well as his philosophy personally and uses both the free snort product *and* the commercial RNA product.I tell ya personally I wouldn't be relying on anything too heavily when it involves FREE software/services. I would always expect the worse to happen and be prepared for it. Snort can drop the product at the drop of a hat and wouldn't be any worse off for it. I bet they've been planning for years as to how they're going to do just that. So far, it looks like a very slow and gradual move from free software to paid.
I leave the real protections of our networks to devices and services we pay for.
