Proposal for Integration of Velociraptor with UTMStack

[arungautt]

Hi,

I am writing to propose an enhancement to UTMStack by integrating Velociraptor, an advanced open-source tool for endpoint monitoring and digital forensics. This integration can significantly strengthen UTMStack's capabilities in Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and enchance the Machine Learning (ML), and User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA).

Why Integrate Velociraptor with UTMStack?
For a long time, I have been seeking a robust open-source Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tool that includes comprehensive functionalities such as EDR, ML, and UEBA. UTMStack is already a powerful SIEM platform, but integrating Velociraptor can elevate its capabilities to provide a more complete and sophisticated security solution.

Benefits of Integration:
Enhanced Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR):

Velociraptor excels in detailed endpoint monitoring and digital forensics, allowing for more effective threat detection and response.
Provides a powerful query language (VQL) for deep-dive investigations and real-time monitoring of endpoint activities.
Improved Incident Response and Forensics:

Allows security teams to perform thorough forensic investigations on compromised systems, gathering crucial evidence and insights.
Facilitates quick response to incidents by providing detailed data from endpoints.
Strengthened Security Posture:

Combining UTMStack's SIEM capabilities with Velociraptor's endpoint monitoring creates a more holistic security solution.
Enhances the ability to detect, analyze, and respond to threats more efficiently.
Open-Source Flexibility and Cost Efficiency:

Regards,
Arun

We are currently working on many improvements to UTMStack, including the implementation of a new event engine that improves the ability to detect important security events based on rules, threat intelligence feeds, and machine learning for anomaly detection. After that, we will include enhanced malware detection capabilities in our agent, including signature detection, heuristic detection, and honeypot capabilities. All these functions will be developed in-house, without depending on third-party software.
