Riemann is an open-source event stream processing tool that helps to monitor and analyze your infrastructure in real-time. To install Riemann on Kali Linux, follow the steps below:
Before installing Riemann, it is recommended to update your Kali Linux system to ensure that all packages are up to date. To do this, run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Riemann requires Java to run. You can check if Java is already installed on your system by running the following command:
java -version
If Java is not installed, you can install it using the following command:
sudo apt install default-jre
To install Riemann on Kali Linux, you need to download the Riemann package from the official website. You can download the latest version of Riemann from http://riemann.io/. Alternatively, you can use the following command to download the package:
wget https://github.com/riemann/riemann/releases/download/0.3.4/riemann-0.3.4.tar.bz2
Once the package is downloaded, extract it using the following command:
tar -xvf riemann-0.3.4.tar.bz2
This will extract the Riemann package to the current directory.
Now, you can configure Riemann according to your requirements. The configuration file for Riemann is located in the "etc" folder of the extracted package. You can modify this file to add plugins or define rules.
To start Riemann, navigate to the extracted package directory and run the following command:
./bin/riemann etc/riemann.config
This will start Riemann with the configuration file you have defined.
By following the steps above, you should now have successfully installed Riemann on Kali Linux. You can now use Riemann to monitor and analyze your infrastructure in real-time.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
