Linux- WatchDog

What it does

WatchDog is a lightweight, always-on Linux security monitoring daemon built for servers, VMs, and bare-metal machines. It continuously watches your system for suspicious activity — network anomalies, file tampering, reverse shells, brute-force logins, and more — and surfaces everything through a clean web dashboard with real-time event logs.

WatchDog is a lightweight, always-on Linux security monitoring daemon built for servers, VMs, and bare-metal machines. It continuously watches your system for suspicious activity — network anomalies, file tampering, reverse shells, brute-force logins, and more — and surfaces everything through a clean web dashboard with real-time event logs. Whether you run a single VPS or a fleet of production servers, WatchDog gives you visibility into what is happening on your Linux host without the overhead of enterprise SIEM tools. Configure it once, deploy it as a systemd service, and let it watch silently in the background. WatchDog is engineered to have a near-zero footprint so it never competes…from github.com

  TheProtector – Linux Bash script for the paranoid admin on a budget2025 · github.com · ▲167

  Hi HN, 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. 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. Features: - Real-time process, network, and file monitoring - YARA malware detection with custom rules - eBPF kernel monitoring (when available) - Behavioral baseline…

  Talanoa▲346

  Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

  Needle: We Distilled Gemini Tool Calling into a 26M Model▲776

  Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
