Hello All!
About a month or so ago, I noticed NAI had a Nimda virus protocol filter on their web site. I downloaded this filter and was surprised by all the traffic our network was incurring from this virus. Since then, we have deployed this filter nationally and have been very pleased with its performance. In saying this, I'm asking for input from other network analysts about creating more filters and posting them for the new viruses that we were recently informed about (w32.badtrans.b@mm and w32.aliz.worm). This would prove to be a valuable resource since it seems that the worm viruses are here to stay.
Thanks in advance!
