Snort Rule to Detect Slow Loris Attack
Hi All,Looking for a bit of help here...As part of my uni course I need to select an attack then develop a Snort rule to detect it and show it in action. I found a Python implementation of the Slowloris attack, which I ran and analyzed. I found a common theme of the attack is the partial GET headers always contained the text 'X-a:' followed by four random digits. I wrote the following rule utilizing regular expressions (I believed this would cut down on false positives):alert tcp any any -> any 80 (msg:"Possible Slowloris Attack Detected"; \ flow:to_server,established; pcre:"/X-a|3a| \d{4}../"; sid:10000005;)which detects the attack successfully with minimal false positives.My question is how I could improve upon the rule, or even if there is a better rule altogether. I understand it's not the best method of detecting the attack, as the 'X-a' in the Python noscript could easily be changed to something altogether (I think).Thanks in advance for any advice.

Help: Weird Spamming/Phishing Pattern
This morning I saw a flood of email in my gmail inbox that looked like spam. It was all addressed to Sheila in the email body. Most was health insurance related. However, one like was to a Rewardbee account that was setup using my email. Rewardbee looks legit, and I requested a password change. I then entered a new password, but one I’ve never used anywhere.After logging in, it looked like whoever it was did some surveys for discounts on magazines. On another health insurance email, I clicked unsubscribe like a dummy and was sent to some fake unsubscribe page. I closed the window and rebooted my Mac.I’ve run MalwareBytes and BitDefender. Both find nothing.However after a steady stream of spam/phishing emails to Sheila, they have now all stopped. That seems suspicious to me.Any idea what’s going on? Did I totally screw up by clicking the unsubscribe link?

So the noscript speaks for itself. Looking for a company with strict policies to not give info even to the police

Accounts to Follow on Twitter
So following the whole T-Mobile plaintext controversy over on Twitter, I've been using it for the whole day and realised that my Timeline is lacking in security content. Therefore, who do you guys follow on twitter to get Security Content?

I hate the “secret questions”. I think it is appropriate to treat the answer to all such authentication systems as if it is a password. So use a random string for each answer and save that and the question in a protected file.
