Linux DLP Challenges

Why Linux protection is often overlooked

Limited DLP Options

Most enterprise DLP solutions only support Windows/macOS, leaving Linux systems unprotected and creating security blind spots.

Developer Workstations

Engineers and developers use Linux for source code, IP, and sensitive data—yet these high-value targets lack DLP protection.

Server Infrastructure

Linux servers host databases, applications, and repositories with critical data but are excluded from endpoint DLP strategies.

Compliance Gaps

Auditors flag unprotected Linux endpoints as compliance violations. GDPR, HIPAA, PCI-DSS require DLP on ALL systems processing sensitive data.

TRIAS Linux DLP Approach

Native Linux protection at kernel level

01

Kernel-Level Integration

Deep OS integration via kernel modules intercepts data at system call level. Cannot be bypassed by applications or scripts.

02

Distribution-Agnostic

Single agent supports Ubuntu, Red Hat, CentOS, SUSE, Debian, Fedora, Amazon Linux, and custom distributions. Kernel 3.10+.

03

Developer-Friendly

Minimal performance impact, no interference with development tools. Supports Docker, Kubernetes, Git, IDEs, CI/CD pipelines.

04

Unified Management

Manage Linux, Windows, macOS from single console. Consistent policies across all platforms with OS-specific enforcement.

Linux-Specific DLP Features

Tailored for Linux environments

File System Monitoring

Monitor ext4, XFS, Btrfs, ZFS file systems. Track file access, modifications, and transfers across all mount points.

Process & Command Control

Control data access by process, script, or command. Block scp, rsync, curl, wget transfers of sensitive data.

Network Traffic Control

Monitor SSH, SCP, SFTP, HTTP/S connections. Block data uploads via network protocols with kernel-level enforcement.

Removable Media Control

Control USB drives, external storage, network mounts. Encrypt or block sensitive data copies to removable media.

Container & Virtualization

Protect Docker containers, Kubernetes pods, LXC, KVM virtual machines. Data flows between containers monitored.

Git & Code Repository

Monitor Git commits, pushes to GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket. Prevent accidental credential or secret commits.

Linux Agent Architecture

How TRIAS protects Linux systems

1

Kernel Module

Loadable kernel module (LKM) intercepts system calls for file, network, and device operations. Hooks into VFS layer for complete visibility.

2

User-Space Agent

Daemon process communicates with kernel module, enforces policies, uploads logs. Lightweight C/C++ implementation with <50MB memory footprint.

3

Policy Engine

Local policy cache enables offline enforcement. Policies synchronized from central console with incremental updates.

4

Secure Communication

TLS 1.3 encrypted communication with management server. Certificate-based authentication, mutual TLS support.

Deployment Methods

Flexible installation options

Package Managers

Install via APT, YUM, DNF, Zypper package managers. Automatic dependency resolution and updates.

apt install trias-dlp, yum install trias-dlp, zypper install trias-dlp

Configuration Management

Deploy with Ansible, Puppet, Chef, SaltStack. Infrastructure-as-code integration for automated rollout.

Ansible playbooks, Puppet modules, Chef recipes, Salt states

Container Deployment

Deploy as DaemonSet in Kubernetes, sidecar containers. Docker images available for containerized environments.

Kubernetes DaemonSet, Docker containers, Helm charts

Linux DLP Use Cases

Developer Workstation Protection

Protect source code, API keys, credentials on engineering laptops. Prevent accidental Git commits of secrets, block unauthorized code uploads.

Server Data Protection

Monitor database servers, application servers, file servers. Detect unauthorized data extraction, lateral movement, privilege escalation.

Industrial Control Systems

Protect SCADA systems, industrial Linux endpoints. Monitor configuration files, operational data, prevent unauthorized changes.

Cloud & Container Security

Secure AWS EC2, Azure VMs, Google Compute instances. Protect data in Kubernetes clusters, Docker containers, microservices.

Protect Your Linux Infrastructure

Finally, enterprise DLP that supports your entire Linux environment
