This product has charges associated with it for seller support. AIDE Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment is a security tool that monitors file integrity by detecting changes in files and directories on a Linux system.
Overview
AIDE 0.18.6 on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS with Free Maintenance Support by PCloudhosting
AIDE (Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment) 0.18.6 on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS is available on AWS Marketplace as a repackaged open-source solution with optional maintenance support from PCloudhosting. AIDE is a host-based intrusion detection system that helps monitor file integrity by creating a trusted baseline of your system and alerting you when changes occur.
Once deployed on Amazon EC2 using the Marketplace AMI, AIDE builds a database of essential system files, including hashes, permissions, ownership, and timestamps. It compares your live system against this baseline to detect unauthorized changes, deleted files, and unexpected additions. This makes it useful for security audits, compliance checks, and early detection of server issues.
Since it is provided as a preconfigured Amazon Machine Image (AMI), you can launch AIDE quickly without manual installation and start monitoring right away.
Key Technical Highlights
- AIDE running on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
- File integrity monitoring using cryptographic hashes
- Tracks permissions, ownership, size, and timestamps
- Detects unauthorized file changes, deletions, and additions
- Command-line driven and lightweight (low system overhead)
- Works well for compliance and security auditing
- Optional maintenance support from PCloudhosting (listing dependent)
Core Capabilities of AIDE
Baseline System Snapshot
AIDE creates a trusted snapshot of system files and stores it as a reference database. This becomes your known-good state.
Change Detection
During scheduled or manual scans, AIDE compares the current system against the baseline and reports:
- Modified files
- New files
- Deleted files
- Permission or ownership changes
This helps identify suspicious activity early.
Compliance-Friendly Monitoring
AIDE is commonly used to support security frameworks that require file integrity monitoring, making it suitable for regulated and production environments.
