New Download Policy


Posted by sf_web on August 15, 2006 09:31:44

To prevent excess resource consumption, we have recently implemented a download throttling policy. Each file may be downloaded once per 15 minutes.

As rulepacks are not released on a daily basis, this should be more than sufficient to allow up to date coverage. VRT rule subscribers are currently exempt from this policy.

If you have any questions about this new policy, please contact snort-site@sourcefire.com.

Thank you,
Snort Web Team
