5 OpenBSM provides an open source implementation of Sun's BSM Audit API.
6 Originally created under contract to Apple Computer by McAfee Research, this
7 implementation is now maintained by volunteers and the generous contribution
8 of several organizations. Coupled with a kernel audit implementation,
9 OpenBSM can be used to maintain system audit streams, and is a foundation for
10 an Audit-enabled system. Portions of OpenBSM, including include files and
11 token-building routines, are reusable in a kernel audit implementation, and
12 may be found in the FreeBSD and Mac OS X kernels.
16 OpenBSM consists of several directories:
18 bin/ Audit-related command line tools
19 bsm/ Library include files for BSM
20 compat/ Compatibility code to build on various OS's
21 etc/ Sample /etc/security configuration files
22 libbsm/ Implementation of BSM library interfaces and man pages
23 man/ System call and configuration file man pages
24 modules/ Directory for auditfilterd module source
25 sys/ System include files for BSM
26 test/ Test token sets and geneneration program
27 tools/ Tool directory, including audump to dump databases
29 The following programs are included with OpenBSM:
31 audit Command line audit control tool
32 auditd Audit management daemon
33 auditfilterd Experimental event monitoring framework
34 auditreduce Audit trail reduction tool
35 audump Debugging tool to parse and print audit databases
36 praudit Tool to print audit trails
38 Build and Installation
40 Please see the file INSTALL for build and installation instructions.
44 The TrustedBSD Project would appreciate the contribution of bug fixes,
45 enhancements, etc, under identically or substantially similar licenses to
46 those present on the remainder of the OpenBSM source code.
