Use cases
How teams use Blackglass
Blackglass is used by SREs, security engineers, and platform teams who need continuous visibility into Linux configuration state — not just point-in-time audit reports.
Linux configuration drift detection
Capture approved baselines and surface drift across sshd, sysctl, listeners, and service states — with severity classification and a remediation workflow.
linux drift · server drift monitoring · config change detection
SSH configuration audit
Track every SSH directive change across your fleet. Surface PermitRootLogin, weak ciphers, and other misconfigurations against an approved baseline.
ssh audit · sshd_config audit · ssh posture
Linux hardening monitoring
Monitor hardening posture after every change. Detect regressions from package upgrades, emergency fixes, or stale golden images, and export evidence for reviews.
linux hardening · security baseline · hardening regression
CIS benchmark monitoring
Track the configuration areas CIS benchmarks address — SSH, sysctl, listeners — and detect when state drifts from your CIS-aligned baseline.
