Cybersecurity Tool: How To Install an IDS (Suricata)

In this video, we'll walk you through the complete process of installing Suricata, a powerful Intrusion Detection System (IDS) used by SOC analysts and cybersecurity professionals worldwide. Suricata provides deep packet inspection, real-time intrusion detection, and network monitoring capabilities, making it a must-have tool for your cybersecurity arsenal.

Packages: sudo apt -y install libnetfilter-queue-dev libnetfilter-queue1 libnfnetlink-dev libnfnetlink0 jq

jq is optional but I include it anyways as it is nice to have (used to sift json output)

Suricata Repo: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oisf/suricata-stable
