Known Bot Command and Control Rules

This ruleset takes a daily list (generously made available to the public!) of known CnC? Servers as researched by Shadowserver.org and Abuse.ch, and converts them into Snort/Suricata signatures and Firewall rules.

Sources include:

Shadow Server

Feodo Tracker

Zeus Tracker

Ransomware Tracker

Note, all of these organizations are fully volunteer staffed and run.

These IPs are updates every 24 hours and should be considered VERY highly reliable indications that a host is communicating with a known and active Bot or Malware command and control server.

Rules are available here:
