Once a year, Suricata welcomes one or two interns from around the globe to work on our project while learning how to contribute to Open Source communities through the Outreachy initiative.
In this webinar, Alice Akaki will cover the contributions made during her 2024 Outreachy internship, focusing on adding new rule keywords to the Suricata rule language, especially for the recently added LDAP protocol.
