Amsterdam is SELKS and Docker using Compose. The result of Amsterdam is a set of containers providing a complete Suricata IDS/NSM ecosystem:
- Suricata
- Elasticsearch
- Logstash
- Kibana
- Scirius
- Evebox (https://github.com/jasonish/evebox)
The ELK stack is created using the official docker images. Communication between logstash and suricata is done via a share directory (from the host). The same applies to scirius and suricata where the /etc/suricata/rules directory is shared.
You can install amsterdam from the source directory by running
sudo python setup.py install
You need to install Docker compose. On Debian
sudo apt-get install docker-compose
To sniff the wlan0 interface and store data and config in the ams directory, you can run
amsterdam -d ams -i wlan0 setup amsterdam -d ams start
As of now the start command will take really long on first run as it will fetch from Docker hub all the necessary images and build some custom container based on Debian.
Subsequent run should take less than 1 minute.
You can then connect to:
- http://localhost:8000 on scirius with scirius/scirius as login/password
- http://localhost:5601 on kibana 4
- http://localhost:5636/ on evebox
To stop the amsterdam instance, run
amsterdam -d ams stop
To remove an amsterdam instance in directory hacklu, run
amsterdam -d ~/builds/amsterdam/hacklu/ rm
and remove the data directory if you want to delete data.
When code is updated (new suricata package or new ELK versions), you can run
amsterdam -d ams update
Then, you can restart the services
amsterdam -d ams restart
The configuration are stored in the config directory. For now only scirius, logstash and suricata are configured that way.
To do so, simply edit docker-compose.yml in the data directory and uncomment and set the path to the scirius source tree. You will also need to copy the local_settings.py in config/scirius directory to in scirius subdirectory of your scirius source.
Once done, you can restart the services
amsterdam -d ams restart
Run a migration inside the container
docker exec ams_scirius_1 python /opt/selks/scirius/manage.py migrate
