Myrikeep Stack Snack
LiveYour Linux hosts.
A clearer picture.
Resource metrics and security findings in one view. See what changed on a host, and the evidence behind the alert.
For homelabs, game-server hosts, and small operations teams running Linux.
What it watches
Watch the resources.
Investigate the changes.
A native agent collects host metrics and security-relevant inventory. Findings are indicators to investigate, with context and coverage limits.
- 01Host resource metrics
- Follow CPU, load, memory, disk activity, network interface counters, filesystem usage, and cgroup v2 service resources.
- 02Account and persistence changes
- Watch for new local UID-0 accounts, duplicate UIDs, shell changes, authorized_keys changes, and persistence configuration changes.
- 03Process security signals
- Investigate deleted executables, fileless execution, and process masquerading indicators. Findings include context; legitimate updates can also trigger signals.
- 04Game-server process behavior
- Flag a game server spawning a shell, interpreter, or downloader. Legitimate plugins may do this too; review the parent-child evidence.
- 05Container context
- Attribute visible processes to supported container runtimes using cgroups and available read-only metadata. Coverage depends on host permissions and visible processes.
- 06Evidence and alert lifecycle
- Review evidence snapshots, acknowledge or resolve alerts, and inspect collector health and coverage gaps. Missing visibility does not mean a host is clean.
Local work. Clear results.
How Stack Snack works.
- 01
Install and enroll
Install the native systemd agent on a supported Linux host. Configure the server, enroll with an administrator-issued token, and start the service.
- 02
Collect on the host
The agent reads resource counters and security inventory within its permission and collection budgets. Collector health makes gaps visible.
- 03
Review the evidence
Host telemetry and bounded inventory travel over verified HTTPS. Server-side rules produce findings with evidence to help you investigate.
