Description-en: Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment - static binary
AIDE is an intrusion detection system that detects changes to files on
the local system. It creates a database from the regular expression rules
that it finds from the config file. Once this database is initialized
it can be used to verify the integrity of the files. It has several
message digest algorithms (md5, sha1, rmd160, tiger, haval, etc.) that are
used to check the integrity of the file. More algorithms can be added
with relative ease. All of the usual file attributes can also be checked
for inconsistencies.
.
This package contains the statically linked binary for "normal"
systems.
