Prelude / News: Recent posts

We are currently migrating the Prelude project to Tuxfamily due to the recent Sourceforge terms change.

If you are using prelude.sourceforge.net to access the project ressources, keep in mind this will not work anymore very soon.

Use prelude-ids.org instead.

The Prelude website was just updated, we hope that you'll enjoy it's new look. The new interface that we use will allow us for easy posting of new content.

Several informations may not be updated yet, but it will be fixed shortly.

Thanks to Odile Darmet <odarmet@club-internet.fr> for all her great work.

Prelude and Trithme, two intrusion detection projects have just decided to merge during the Libre Software Meeting in order to optimize development and software efficiency. The project will keep the original Prelude
name. Trithme team will bring its knowledge in the field of distributed architecture, non-linear and long term correlation and host-based functions: Notably, for the first time, the centralised logging based on distributed sensors, countermeasures and automated responses process. They will also contribute to the developpment of an administrative console to centralize the administration and reporting functions -- all of this will take advantage of the strongly modular architecture of Prelude to extend it in a distributed fashion to hybrid capability. The two developement teams will join soon, keeping a cooperative and free developement model. All theses improvments will so be done in a transparent fashion for the users and will be integrated during the future Prelude releases.... read more

We are currently moving the Prelude projects back to Sourceforge. The CVS repository was deleted and the history reset because it would have been a pain to merge > 1 year of developement back in this CVS.

The Prelude release also were posted here, and we are currently preparing the mailing list switch.
