There was a problem hiding this comment.
Following the conversation from the last PR. ref #1172 (comment)
I meant that one byte is generally not a unique indicator of the data.
- Does
|51|only occur once in the entire pcap?- Yes. Then sure, this is good.
- No. Then, how do you know that the alert happened at the correct
|51|byte? A unique sequence is usually a much better indicator. So, you could have say three or two bytes before this|51|to make sure it is the exact sequence that you intended to match with.
