LinuxGuard overview

What is LinuxGuard?

LinuxGuard is the control plane for Linux identity — a continuous Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM) and Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR) platform purpose-built for the Linux estate, rather than adapted from a Windows-first or cloud-first tool . It gives security and infrastructure teams a single, always-current inventory of every human account, service identity, SSH key, sudo rule, and PAM configuration across on-prem, cloud, and hybrid Linux servers, scoring each identity from 0–100 with inline explanations of the risk factors behind the score .

LinuxGuard maps privilege-escalation paths, flags NOPASSWD sudo rules and orphaned or shared SSH keys, detects configuration drift in real time, and maps 100 MITRE ATT&CK-aligned signals for detection and safety-gated automated response. It also generates continuous, audit-ready compliance evidence mapped to NIS2, DORA, SOC 2, CIS, NIST, PCI-DSS, and ISO 27001, and integrates with existing SIEM, ticketing, and collaboration tools . LinuxGuard is certified SUSE Ready, Red Hat Certified Technology, and validated for Ubuntu LTS/Debian.
