Oh, you remind me of that day when our IDS went bonkers. Something was hammering us with SQL injections, it said. Like, 1-2 SQL injections per minute. And it gave successful HTTP responses, and actual JSON responses. The sky must be falling! We must be doomed!

After a brief amount of panic, we figured out that we had a new customer for our knowledge base. This was an MSP and they were busy uploading their MSSQL and PostgreSQL runbooks into our knowledge base. Entirely beautiful documentation I have to say, clear steps, great instructions, smart queries to check, act and validate. We eventually had a good call about Postgres and such with those guys. But our IDS hated it.

I keep referring to the situation where a supplier sold the Cisco select range. If you clicked the page on their site, select showed up in the url and their way blocked your connection.
