    IDS Folk,

    Is there a utility/function/program that automatically generates an IDS
    signature based on a recording of a monitored exploit attempt? For
    example, say the exploit is brought into an isolated lab environment, and
    we record the whole attack. At the end of the attack, this "thing" spits
    out automated scripts for any number of IDS solutions. Seems like it
    would be something that companies like Snort/Symantec/Dragon/etc. might
    already have, but I've never heard of such a utility.

    With Love,

    Quaker Oats
