Dear Mister Dobbins,
Thank you for your reply.
Argus is OK, but I believe that it mainly relies upon packet capture - it does
now support NetFlow v5, and v9 support as well as support for Juniper flow
telemetry and others is supposed to be coming.
Argus is a superset of Netflow [1]. It's a *better* Netflow :

I've personally not played with Argus and NetFlow; nfdump/nfsen is a useful
open-source NetFlow collection/analysis system.
There is also Psyche from Pontetec that is a better nfsen :

Me and my partners are working on a Flow Based Security Awareness
Framework for High-Speed Networks.

It's always good to see folks motivated to work on solutions they believe will
benefit the community at large.
Thank you. The question is : Who are the people interested in our work ?
Best Regards,
Guillaume FORTAINE
