Firekeeper is an Intrusion Detection and Prevention System for Firefox.
It is able to detect, block and warn the user about malicious sites. Firekeeper uses flexible rules similar to Snort ones to describe browser based attack attempts.
Rules can also be used to effectively filter different kinds of unwanted content.
Features :
* Ability to scan HTTP(S) request URL, response headers and body, and to cancel processing of suspicious requests
* Encrypted and compressed responses are scanned after decryption/decompression
* Privacy friendly – no data is send to external servers, all scanning is done on the local computer
* Very fast pattern matching algorithm (taken directly from Snort).
* Interactive, verbose alerts that give an ability to choose a response to detected attack attempt.
* A detailed view of suspicious response headers and body
* Event logging
* Ability to use any number of files with rules and to automatically load files from remote locations

This lightweight network intrusion detection and prevention system excels at traffic analysis and packet logging on IP networks. Through protocol analysis, content searching, and various pre-processors, Snort detects thousands of worms, vulnerability exploit attempts, port scans, and other suspicious behavior. Snort uses a flexible rule-based language to describe traffic that it should collect or pass, and a modular detection engine. Also check out the free Basic Analysis and Security Engine (BASE), a web interface for analyzing Snort alerts.
Open source Snort works fine for many individuals, small businesses, and departments. Parent company SourceFire offers a complimentary product line with more enterprise-level features and real-time rule updates. They offer a free (with registration) 5-day-delayed rules feed, and you can also find many great free rules at Bleeding Edge Snort.
