I can't comment on the quality of the TALOS set, but I can tell you it's
status for Suricata is a bit unclear. As far as I know, the TALOS team
is not supporting Suricata. So I suspect performance (and even accuracy)
of this rule set on Suricata is going to be suboptimal.

On our side we do a bit of testing with it every now and then, but it
doesn't go much further than making sure the rules load w/o error (and
there are some open issues with that even).

I would love to work with some of the TALOS ppl on improving this
situation. (I know you guys are on the list :P)

With ET on the other hand, we do massive accuracy regression testing. We
have pcaps for virtually every ET rule, and the regression testing is
part of our CI system.
