Application Filter for OPNsense

[Vharry]

Hii,

I am reaching out to share my intention to embark on a project to develop an application filter plugin for OPNsense. While I recognize the existence of advanced solutions like ZenArmor, I am keen on developing a plugin tailored to specific needs and preferences, leveraging the potential of Suricata.

This endeavor aims to contribute to the OPNsense ecosystem by providing users with a customizable and efficient tool for filtering applications based on various criteria, empowered by Suricata's capabilities. By harnessing Suricata's robust intrusion detection and prevention features, we can enhance the application filtering capabilities within OPNsense. However, as I delve into this project, I acknowledge the need for guidance and collaboration from the community to ensure its success.

Best,
Harry

Hii,

Please Refer this post to see how I am implementing the app filter on my OPNsense machine in my lab, this is just my weekend project but I am looking forward for guidance in here, I am missing on a small configuration part which has become untraceable for me, although this method needs refinement, but it can get my work done for smaller seating areas.
