final year project java project rule based intrusion detection system using snort

[rakesh.mourya24]

I am about to do my final year project about guard against zero-day vulnerabilities by deploying Snort IDS.

My adviser suggests that I have to do something more than installing and configuring Snort, creating honeypot, and testing the network against zero-day attack.
Could you please guide me, what I can do ? how can people utilized from my project?
