Getting Started

The artemis daemon follows a similar process as osquery remote settings. It currently has the following features:

  • Enrollment
  • Daemon configuration
  • Receiving and uploading collections

Enrollment​

Currently in order to connect to a supported server artemis must use an enrollment secret. Once a remote server accepts the enrollment request it should generate a node_key for the endpoint.
When artemis receives the node_key, it will use the node_key instead of the enrollment secret for all future communications with the remote server.

Configuration​

Once artemis has successfully enrolled into a remote server it will send a request for a TOML daemon configuration file. If the server does not provide one, artemis will generate a default configuration file and use that.

Collections​

After enrolling and setting up a configuration file, artemis will begin polling the server for TOML collection jobs. If server sends a collection job to the daemon, artemis will parse the collection and start uploading the results to the remote server.
