What problem does it solve?

Linux system logs provide the primary evidence to reconstruct user activity and detect unauthorized access during incidents.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Forensic reconstruction: parse auth.log, syslog, kern.log, and systemd journal to build event timelines.
• Brute-force detection: identify IPs with excessive failed login attempts and correlate with sudo events.
• Incident response workflows: generate human-readable reports and machine-readable payloads for automation.

Quick Start

Run the analyzer against Linux logs to generate a forensic timeline and alert on brute-force activity.
