For Open Source software to conquer the enterprise, we need to play
along with government and industry regulations, and help
organisations meet their security and audit requirements. Sometimes
this means tracking everything a user sees and does. A flexible and
scalable Open Source user session recording solution is needed.

In this presentation we will discuss the limitations of existing
Open Source approaches, then present the Scribery project, an
end-to-end session recording solution with features including:

terminal session playback and real-time monitoring (including what
the user sees)

centralised storage and correlation with auditd log events

centralised control of what or whom to record, via SSSD and in the
future FreeIPA

Cockpit integration

The presentation will include a demo of a user session being
recorded, stored centrally, inspected and played back.

We will look at the architecture, discuss implementation challenges,
and conclude with an overview of the road ahead.

The intended audience is system administrators and security officers
responsible for security and compliance, and developers of security,
identity and policy management systems.

This talk was given at Linux.conf.au 2018 (LCA2018) which was held on 22-26 January 2018 in Sydney Australia.

linux.conf.au is a conference about the Linux operating system, and all aspects of the thriving ecosystem of Free and Open Source Software that has grown up around it. Run since 1999, in a different Australian or New Zealand city each year, by a team of local volunteers, LCA invites more than 500 people to learn from the people who shape the future of Open Source.
