their licensing. The folks at OSSIM have stepped up to the plate and have come up with a process to continue using the open source version of Nessus while still maintaining a near live plugin feed.
So, back to the integration point at hand. One of the open source projects that is integrated is OSSEC, which is a real time syslog event parser that uses simple string matches to help correlate events and raise attention to them. It is this component within the whole system that you’ll want to integrate the previously mentioned challenge of not having an easy means of testing and deploying your honeypot system.
In the meantime, I invite you to checkout OSSIM for this purpose and for all of the other nice features that it supports!
