* HOW TO USE A RASPBERRY PI AS A NETWORK SENSOR - WEBINAR

* 16 January 2020 - 2:00PM EST

This webinar is being hosted by Black Hills Information Security and
presented by Bill Sterns, from Active Countermeasures.

This webcast will cover running a network sensor using a Raspberry Pi, a
miniature single-board computer that runs most anything you can run under
Linux.

Bill will show you how to install and use the Zeek IDS and cover the
performance aspects you'll need to know. Setting up IDSs that cost about
the same as a bike means you can monitor far more network segments
simultaneously, and hide them behind a power brick if you have to.
