Pretty excited, today I got my very own copy of the OSSEC Host-Based Intrusion Detection (HIDS) Guide in the mail. If you haven't heard about it, it was developed a few years back and was founded by our founder at Sucuri, Daniel Cid. Its core features include:
    ,
  • log analysis
  • ,
  • file integrity checking
  • ,
  • policy monitoring
  • ,
  • rootkit detection
  • ,
  • real-time alerting
  • ,
  • active response
As you might expect, as I go along this learning journey I'll share my findings and thoughts.,
