Security Scope

SentinelOS-Lite is a lightweight, host-focused security stack for detection and response automation.

What It Does

  • Monitors basic CPU/memory thresholds and service availability.
  • Detects config drift on critical files using hashes.
  • Detects anomalies in metrics with a simple statistical baseline.
  • Automates responses with a rule engine and action hooks.
  • Alerts via Telegram for high-severity issues.

What It Does Not Do

  • Replace endpoint detection and response (EDR).
  • Prevent kernel-level rootkits or sophisticated persistence.
  • Provide full SIEM-scale correlation across many hosts.
  • Act as a hardened Linux distribution.

Operational Notes

  • Use API tokens in production.
  • Restrict network access to backend and agent ports.
  • Keep backup directory protected and access-controlled.
