Could be possible to integrate Artificial Intelligence in Opnsense?

[newman87]

Hi,
I would like to ask if AI/Machine learning will be included in OPNSense sooner or later.
I read that there have been some efforts from an OPNSense fork called OPNids etc.
So,are there any intentions to include such things in OPNSense?
Cheers

Hi,

There was OPNids a while back https://www.eweek.com/security/opnids-integrates-machine-learning-into-open-source-suricata-ids/ but I don't think it still exists in this form.

OPNids and similar efforts indeed indicate a growing interest in enhancing security solutions with AI capabilities. As technology evolves, there's potential for AI-powered features to be incorporated into OPNSense, especially for more advanced threat detection and mitigation.
If you're interested in AI integration for security purposes, you might also want to check out solutions like face check.id. It's essential to keep an eye on developments in the field of AI for network security, as they can lead to more robust and efficient protection for your network.

Recently I read somewhere that Bavaria is going to retire notorious fax machines in public administration (relying REALLY, REALLY hard on this technique), because fax machines "can not be equipped with artificial intelligence".

Hopefully OPNsense will not be erradicated the same way. :-D

Sometimes it would be better to make use of a little more natural intelligence, but that's a rare commodity not only in Bavaria...

My prediction... AI will turn around and bite 50% of integrations on the backside in the very near future.

That is when Skynet will take control

Funny, I always believed that 50% of programmers (or engineers) were responsible for fixing the work of the other 50%.

Hey,  haven't heard any solid news about AI or machine learning being integrated into OPNSense just yet. I’ve been following some of the OPNids work, and while it's pretty cool, I think it might take a bit longer for OPNSense to adopt those features. It’s definitely something to keep an eye on, though—always interesting to see how these projects evolve.
