"What is Spicy? Learn more about Zeek's new framework for building protocol parsers" brought to you by Corelight Open Source
Presented by Robin Sommer, Corelight Co-founder
We are running the session on October 22nd at 10am GMT and October 22nd at 10am Pacific time.
Join Corelight Open Source to learn more about Spicy, a new parser generator—now integrated into Zeek—that makes it much easier to create robust analyzers for network protocols, file formats, and more.
This webcast will explain:
- Why parsing is a key component of any network monitor like Zeek, it remains challenging to implement correctly, and efficiently with traditional approaches.
- We will present Spicy’s novel take on the task, which enables developers to extend Zeek with new protocol and file analyzers without writing a single line of C++ code.
- We’ll go through Spicy’s design, see examples of its capabilities, and recap the project’s history and current state.
This will be a technical presentation—we’ll be looking at code!
