 | | May 18, 2006 – Network managers at Middlebury College in Vermont have created an open source application that watches entries in log files, analyzes them and triggers actions such as alerting administrators, quarantining a user, or shutting down a switch port. |
 | | The application, dubbed Privateye, automates a large chunk of network security management activities by exploiting capabilities that are already found in common applications, including firewalls and intrusion-prevention systems (IPS), and in a network of managed switches. |
 | | The college has completed Version 2.0 of Privateye, which among other things made it more extensible so it can take inputs from other applications, and added features such as Boolean logic so administrators can create more complex rules and triggers. |
