FIM

FIM is free, open-source software for monitoring file systems on premises. It watches files in the background, keeps historical information, emits events when changes occur, creates hashes, and analyzes content, attributes, ownership, and permissions. On Linux, the Audit daemon can identify who caused an event and which command produced it. Events may be written locally, sent over a network, or sent to both destinations. Documentation lists Elasticsearch 8.x or OpenSearch 2.x and Splunk indexer 9.x integrations, with only one integration active at a time. FIM runs on Linux, Windows, and macOS. Installation guidance lists Ubuntu Xenial or later, CentOS 7 or later, Windows 7 or Server 2016 or later, and macOS Big Sur or later. Minimum requirements are one CPU core, 128 MB memory, and 1 GB storage, with storage use increasing over time. The maker says support is free and provides an email contact.
