====== Introduction to Trisul Scripting for Bro IDS users ====== Bro IDS is a popular open source network analysis platform. A key feature of Bro IDS is the custom BRO language that allows you to write scripts to enhance the functionality of the platform. Trisul Network Analytics is also a platform that can be extended by writing scripts. This page introduces the Trisul Scripting API for those who are already familiar with Bro IDS scripting. ===== Trisul API ===== The first thing to note is Trisul is not built on top of Bro, it is built from ground up to be a streaming analytics platform. Therefore we need a small tech introduction to Trisul first before diving into the Scripting details.
