      Hello guys,

      I have a basic question:
      I am toying around with pfSense. Does snort package in pfSense provide a protection against attacks if we use it using the rules/rulesets that exist on their website / or-and if we use with our own rules? Or does it just report?

      If we do not define/use any rules or rulesets in snort, doesn't it provide any protection?

      Same questions go for suricata also.

      Thanks a lot..
