Description : Tripwire is a very valuable security tool for Linux systems, if it is
: installed to a clean system. Tripwire should be installed right after
: the OS installation, and before you have connected your system to a
: network (i.e., before any possibility exists that someone could alter
: files on your system).
:
: When Tripwire is initially set up, it creates a database that records
: certain file information. Then when it is run, it compares a designated
: set of files and directories to the information stored in the database.
: Added or deleted files are flagged and reported, as are any files that
: have changed from their previously recorded state in the database. When
: Tripwire is run against system files on a regular basis, any file
: changes will be spotted when Tripwire is run. Tripwire will report the
: changes, which will give system administrators a clue that they need to
: enact damage control measures immediately if certain files have been
: altered.
