AI Defence / Continuous monitoring
Watch selected changes in the host’s context.
The Linux development agent includes a periodic monitoring loop. It samples selected file-integrity, process, authentication-log and configuration signals, giving reviewers evidence of observed changes between assessments.
What is observed
The monitoring source samples process context, selected file integrity hashes, authentication-log information and configuration digests. The available inputs depend on local permissions, configured paths and the host’s facilities.
The example uses a 30-second monitor interval and a one-hour audit interval. These are configuration examples, not measured detection times. A periodic sampler may miss short-lived activity between observations.
Understand a change before responding
A software release or authorised administrative task can legitimately change a service, process or configuration file. The observation needs to be compared with the expected state and maintenance context. A difference is a reason to investigate, not a conclusive intrusion finding.
The broader specification describes accepted baselines and ongoing risk correlation. A complete baseline-management interface, production false-positive workflow and comprehensive threat intelligence feed have not been verified.
Local visibility and central awareness
Monitoring can produce local observations. Configured transport is required for central delivery, and the example disables that transport. Receiving-service integration, delivery confirmation and disconnected behaviour must be exercised in the pilot.
No new central message can mean no relevant observed event, unavailable collection, a disconnected host or a delivery problem. A quiet screen cannot establish a clean endpoint. The related Remedy heartbeat dashboard is a separate runtime feature.
What this monitoring does not establish
The inspected implementation does not establish exhaustive event capture, packet inspection, ransomware detection rates, a malware engine or a managed response service. Windows and network production validation are separately unavailable in the reviewed branch.
Retain existing security operations and define the precise contribution of these periodic observations during evaluation. Any response still needs supported capability, configured authority and a tested operational procedure.
From selected observations to planned certification
The current selected Linux observations are a starting point for broader security-drift evaluation. The Continuous Integrity design adds explicit object and state identity, authorised lineage and the withdrawal of inherited trust after unexplained change.
These are different maturity levels. Periodically observing a hash change does not establish read-time enforcement, a complete provenance registry or a validated estate-wide recertification workflow.
