GitHub Stats
About Fibratus
Fibratus is a tool for exploration and tracing of the Windows kernel via Event Tracing for Windows (ETW). It captures process creation/termination, thread activity, file system operations, registry modifications, network connections, DLL loads, and driver events in real-time. Fibratus includes a rule engine for detecting suspicious behavior patterns (fileless malware indicators, persistence mechanisms, credential access). Events can be filtered with a powerful expression language and forwarded to Elasticsearch, AMQP, or console output. It provides deep kernel-level visibility for threat hunting, incident response, and understanding system behavior during malware detonation.
About Velociraptor
Velociraptor is an endpoint visibility and collection tool designed for digital forensic investigations and incident response (DFIR). It allows security teams to hunt for artifacts across thousands of endpoints simultaneously, providing deep insights into system activities. Written in Go, Velociraptor is notable for its scalability and speed, enabling rapid response and comprehensive analysis in enterprise environments.
