Covenant Eyes like screen accountability for Linux

Basic Structure

  • PWControl.sh runs in the root crontab to verify PenguinWatch.sh is running. It starts it as the user if needed
  • PenguinWatch.sh spend most of it's time sleeping for a random number about 5 minutes and triggering screenshot.sh
  • Screenshot.sh takes a screenshot, decides if it can upload it right now, and either calls pythonUpload.py or saves it to a folder for processing later.
  • PythonUpload evalutes the screenshot and if necessary, uploads it to the server for reporting.
  • Eventually I want to add a daily report

Tasks

  • Basic Bones
  • Root cron process can cause screenshots to be saved
  • Only take screenshots if there is a logged in user
  • Embed the JSON data in the image for troubleshooting false positives
  • Detect black screens where the user may have found a way to prevent screenshots
  • Add exception handling.
  • Add monitoring for notifications when the service has been down.
