Robust Host Intrusion Detection Solution
The Linux Intrusion Detection System (LIDS) implements an additional level of access control above and beyond what is normally included with the Linux kernel. This Mandatory Access Control mechanism prevents at a kernel level users (including root) from accessing resources they have not explictly been given permission to access. The host intrusion detection included with EnGarde is pre-configured for your system. Experienced Linux users can tweak the level of notification, control the level of access to system resources, as well as numerous other system parameters. It requires no additional configuration as a part of standard system operation. Through the use of the Web-managable Tripwire host integrity database, users can maintain data integrity and increase the level of assurance required to be on the Web today. Tripwire is software that monitors all file changes, verifies the integrity of data at rest on network servers, and notifies administrators of any violations.
