I wanted to run an idea past the community to see if there would be enough 
interest in pursing this concept further.  Please refer to this project by 
Arbor Networks - http://www.arbornetworks.com/fingerprint-sharing-alliance.html

This is the key description paragraph -

"Attack resolution requires real-time cooperation and coordination between 
service providers to identify a compromised or infected system as close to the 
absolute Internet ingress as possible. The community of service providers that 
are participating in the Fingerprint Sharing Alliance will be sharing cyber 
attack profiles, or "fingerprints" to stop attacks more quickly and closer to 
the source. This is the first time worldwide telecommunications companies have 
been able to share attack profiles automatically, allowing providers to 
consistently protect one another and their customers from today's distributed 
threats."

What I am interested in doing it creating an automated method for users to 
submit "fingerprints" of malicious attacks they have seen on their sites so 
that other ModSecurity users can quickly download those rules and use them to 
protect their sites.  I don't want to dive too deep into the technical details 
of "how" at this point.

What I want to know is the following -

 1.  Is this something that you would use?
 2.  Is this something that you would participate in by submitting fingerprints?

Please respond to this email thread if you are interested in this concept.  If 
we get a good response, we will proceed with development and work with the 
community on details.

Thanks,
Ryan
