✦ Synopsis


With so many open source tools available to help with network security, it can be tricky to figure out where to start, especially if you are an IT generalist who has been tasked with security. We all have to start somewhere.

The question is, where?

The sheer number of open source network security tools available can make it difficult to choose a place to start. This is complicated by the fact that most of the open source network security tools available have a very steep learning curve, and that many of these tools can be hazardous to run on a production network. Let’s take a look at a few of the tools available, which will not only provide some answers, but also help you learn more about the topic.
