  • dnf (manages dependencies automatically): 

    sudo dnf install ./intrudect-logagent-x.y.z.arch.rpm

Install locations

  • All packages are installed into /opt/intrudect-<packagename>
  • Configuration file name is config.json which is locaited either:
    • /opt/intrudect-<packagename>/etc/config.json
    • /opt/intrudect-<packagename>/config.json
  • License file is located in /opt/intrudect-<packagename>/etc/license.sig

Web application - start here

This package is mandatory for other components and must be reachable by all agents you plan to install. Proceed with this setup guide to install and configure the web application

Once the web application is set up and agents are added, each agent must be licensed individually. Continue here to understand license activation. After signing the licenses and restarting the agents, the system will be ready.

Configuration tuning

At this point, the configuration is technically functional. However, to ensure optimal performance in real-world use, it's essential to fine-tune the settings to avoid unnecessary noise in events and chat messages. Each event should either be resolved or consciously marked as an accepted exception, based on a clear and informed decision.
