Build and Test AIDE Database
Run the following command to generate a new database:
'$ sudo /usr/sbin/aide --init'
By default, the database will be written to the file '/var/lib/aide/aide.db.new.gz'.
Storing the database, the configuration file '/etc/aide.conf', and the binary
'/usr/sbin/aide' (or hashes of these files), in a secure location (such as on read-only media) provides additional assurance about their integrity.
The newly-generated database can be installed as follows:
'$ sudo cp /var/lib/aide/aide.db.new.gz /var/lib/aide/aide.db.gz'
To initiate a manual check, run the following command:
'$ sudo /usr/sbin/aide --check'
If this check produces any unexpected output, investigate.
Parameter:
Technical Mechanism:
For AIDE to be effective, an initial database of "known-good" information about files
must be captured and it should be able to be verified against the installed files.
