Binaries are not currently distributed for these platforms as testing is ongoing. To inquire about the latest status of support for these, or other platforms, please contact the AIS Alarms-Unix System Experts at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Primary among these are the Sensor Agents and the Response Agents. The sensor will recognize the activity and report the event using the AIS Alarms-Unix System communications library to send an encrypted message to the Command Center. Sensor events are sent to the Assessment Manager and Configuration Manager components.
Sensors operate in different modes depending on the actual sensor.
Most sensors wake up every so often and check various system files or data for evidence of intrusive behavior. Other sensors run continuously waiting to be triggered by an external event. Sensors are installed on all nodes of a protected network, although some may only need to be enabled on select nodes. Multiple sensors can be run on a single node. However, only one instance of a given sensor can exist on any given node.
