Afick 2.12.1


Portable and open source integrity monitoring and intrusion detection system.
Afick (Another File Integrity CHecker) is a fast and portable intrusion detection and integrity monitoring system.

Afick has been designed to work on all platforms (it only needs Perl and standard modules), including Mac OS X, Unix, Windows, Linux.

Afick is a security tool, very close from the well known tripwire. It allows to monitor the changes on your files systems, and so can detect intrusions.

Main features of Afick:

  • portable without any change to all common operating systems (Mac OS X, Windows, Unix ...)
  • easy install : no need to compile or to install many others tools
  • fast
  • display new/deleted/modified files
  • display dangling links
  • may be used by any user
  • any number of base and config
  • config file with exceptions and jokers
  • configuration file syntaxe close from aide's one
  • command line is perfect on Unix, but Windows users prefer graphical interfaces, so it also has a Tk interface

  • (windows) afick_planning now send report instead summary and use LINES macro
