AncileBase
Security Observability

Real-time visibility, powered by server-grade detection.

Prove suspicious activity is happening in real time and at any scale. No dashboards to babysit, no SOC team required. Just continuous detection.

The AncileBase Platform

Three building blocks. One continuous picture of what's happening on your servers.

01 / Capture

Invisible event capture

Seamless visibility with zero user disruption.

The vector binary operates silently in the background, capturing process, file, and auth events without intrusive agents or sidecars.

[10:14:02]PROCESS_EXEC/usr/bin/python3(PID: 10452)
[10:14:05]FILE_MODIFY/etc/nginx/nginx.conf
[10:14:12]AUTH_LOGINsuccess user:adminvia SSH
02 / Evaluate

Continuous rule evaluation

Stay ahead of suspicious activity.

Sentinel evaluates every event against five focused detection rules and surfaces only what matters - before it becomes an incident.

Detection AlertP1 Critical
Triggered Rule:Web Shell Spawned
Parent Process Hierarchy:nginx ➔ /bin/sh
03 / Privacy

Privacy-preserving, secure by design

No file contents collected, no payload inspection.

AncileBase captures event metadata only, ensuring compliance and user trust.

AncileBase

An invisible layer of trust for your infrastructure.

Built for engineering teams, not security analysts.

Explainable alerts

Every alert names the exact rule, process, and server involved - no black-box scoring.

Web Shell SpawnSSH Brute Force

Effortless install

One install command. No agents, no config files, no orchestration to manage.

curl -fsSL https://install.ancilebase.com | sudo sh

Built to scale

From a single server to a hundred-node fleet, performance stays under 0.3% CPU per host.

< 20MB RAM

Trusted by teams that demand accuracy

“Built on the same detection logic security teams already trust - just without the SOC team to operate it.”

AncileBase Philosophy

24/7 Operations

Built for engineers who read logs at 2am.

Automated Tracing

Real-time threat feeds updated dynamically.
