LimaCharlie provides information security tools and infrastructure designed for massive scale. The platform supplies all the tools to run an MSSP or SOC as well as providing API’s that allow users to build and monetize their own products.

Developer documentation can be found here.

Practical guides to getting things done can be found in the LimaCharlie Help Center here.

# Products ## Endpoint Detection & Response

LimaCharlie provides a true-real-time Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) capability. Verbose telemetry is streamed from the endpoint sensor to the cloud in real-time over a semi-persistent TLS connection. Response actions are taken on the endpoint within 100ms of the triggering action or behaviour.

Endpoint telemetry is ingested and analyzed in-flight by the Detection & Response Engine (DRE). Telemetry can be tested against thousands of rules without impacting performance.

LimaCharlie’s EDR sensor generates telemetry for a wide variety of event data that is delivered in a common JSON format.

Detection

A versatile YAML-based detection syntax can be used to create detections for highly sophisticated behaviour, including the ability to track state and build multi-step detection logic that runs at wire speed.

This same detection syntax can also be used to easily achieve the following:

Run Sigma rules
Run continuous YARA scans without impacting performance
Monitor file and registeries
Leverage threat feeds or lookups
Check hashes against VirusTotal
Create rules against telemetry from Windows Defender
Check domains using Levenshtein distance to detect spear phishing

A repository of sample detection rules can be found in this repository: Sample Rule Set. The full open source Sigma ruleset (which can be enabled on deployments at the click of a button) can be found here: Sigma Rule Set

Response

When a detection is triggered a response action is initiated. A response can take an action on the endpoint or be used to automate many aspects of security operations. Response actions can include:

Kill a process or process tree
Trigger memory dumps
Issue an alert to a wide variety of destination types including the web application, any webhook, SMTP, PagerDuty, Kafka, SCP and more
Initiate full PCAP capture from the network without impacting performance
Trigger log ingestion and analysis
Deploy and run any executable on endpoint such as patches or custom scripts

## Software Defined Networking

LimaCharlie Net is a Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) that rolls SD-WAN into a cloud service. It changes the way that secure remote access is delivered. It is much more than a virtual private network and can be established with the click of a button. It is a micro-segmentable network that can capture full or partial PCAP files entirely in the cloud without impacting users. These captured files can also be analyzed with the Zeek Network Monitoring Tool and have detection rules written against them.

LimaCharlie Net is available for Windows, MacOS, Linux, iOS, Android and Chrome OS.

Documentation on LimaCharlie Net can be found here

## Log & Artifact Ingestion

LimaCharlie has the ability to ingest and process a large and ever growing list of file types and telemetry.

By leveraging this capability, LimaCharlie users can ingest and then write detection and response rules for just about anything out there.

If there is something you want to monitor that we do not yet support feel free to let us know. We frequently add support for new formats, and the turnaround is typically measured in days.

Everything can be automated via the full-featured API or manually through the LimaCharlie web application.

Currently supported file types and telemetry:

Plain text logs, like syslog for example
Windows Event Logs in real-time
PCAPs which can then be processed using the Zeek network monitoring tool
Windows Prefetch files
Windows PE (executables) files
Full memory dumps automated across the entire fleet
Generic JSON
OLE (MS Word, Excel etc)
Windows MFT CSV Listing
Apple Binary/XML plists

Documentation on Log & Artifact Ingestion can be found here
