- Fully fledged response capabilities handling most incident response and forensics tasks.
- OS-level and raw file system access, using the SleuthKit (TSK).
- Enterprise hunting (searching across a fleet of machines) support.
- Fully scalable back-end to handle very large deployments.
- Automated scheduling for recurring tasks.
- Fast and simple collection of hundreds of digital forensic artifacts.

Requirements
- A linux box. At the moment the full install is thoroughly tested end to end on Ubuntu Server 14.04 64-bit [1]. It works on other things fine [2], but that is what it’s tested on.
- Recommend > 1GB Ram and a modern CPU if you want to run everything on one box (note that free Amazon EC2 instances don’t have enough RAM).
- Some clients to talk to the server. OSX, Windows and Linux agents are supported.
