You've got to tread very lightly here, as rich pointed out it's a complicated and arcane setup and if not configured correctly you're going to be a target for denial of service attacks both directed and inadvertant. The &quot;self defending network&quot; is the new buzz-phrase, but if you start blocking addresses willy-nilly you'll have no connectivity.

I found a SNORTSAM to auto blocking based on Snort Rulez. It is integrated with IPTABLES<br />

<br />
We develop an integration with EBTABLES to use it on transparent bridge too.<br />

Hi,<br />

I installed Snort and Acid on my server, but, it only log / alert the intruders but do not block them.<br />

SNORT + IPTABLES [ How to block with Snort ]

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.
