Hey Dean, I was thinking it would be really great if Cloudstack could be enhanced to support integration with Suricata.
That way, every tenant (VPC) can be protected by some form of transparent IDS/IPS solution, which is greatly required by lots of companies and use cases these days. And given Suricata is an Open Source Project too, I think this is worth doing. This is just an idea on my side.
