Show HN: TheProtector – Linux Bash script for the paranoid admin on a budget
Show HN: TheProtector – Linux Bash script for the paranoid admin on a budget Hi HN,<p>I spent the past year building this in my spare time because I got tired of enterprise security tools that cost $50K/year and don't understand Linux.<p>TheProtector is a comprehensive security monitoring tool that actually runs on the systems we use (Linux) instead of being a Windows-first afterthought. Built it entirely on a $500 laptop because I believe good security shouldn't require unlimited budgets.<p>Features: - Real-time process, network, and file monitoring - YARA malware detection with custom rules - eBPF kernel monitoring (when available) - Behavioral baseline establishment and anomaly detection - Active threat response (blocks IPs, kills processes, quarantines files) - Anti-evasion detection for rootkits and advanced threats - Honeypots for attack detection - Web dashboard for monitoring - Single bash script, no complex installation<p>The tagline is "not perfect but better than most" because I'm tired of security vendors claiming their tools are flawless. This actually works, costs $0, and you can read every line of code.<p>I know bash isn't the sexy choice for security tools, but it runs everywhere, has zero dependencies, and most Linux admins can read/modify it. Sometimes boring technology that works is better than fancy technology that doesn't.<p>It's designed for the intersection of "paranoid about security" and "don't have enterprise budgets" - which describes most of us actually running Linux systems.<p>GitHub: <a href="https://github.com/IHATEGIVINGAUSERNAME/theProtector">https://github.com/IHATEGIVINGAUSERNAME/theProtector</a><p>Been running it on my own systems for months. Catches the stuff that matters and doesn't flood you with false positives. If you hate expensive security theater as much as I do, might be worth a look.<p>Open to feedback, especially from folks who know more about this stuff than I do.<p>Thanks, IHATEGIVINGAUSERNAME (yes, I really do hate giving usernames)
