If you just want to monitor changes, Tripwire does this. However, that
is all it does. Its an "after the fact" intrusion detection.
If you want active detection and file change detection, RealSecure
Server Sensor does this. It can do in-line, real time IPS and monitor
the file system for changes. And there is a version for both Windows and
UNIX.
DISCLAIMER: I sell these solutions.

Subject: RE: using HIDS for change control
Does anyone on this list know of a sponsor that is using HIDS to monitor
changes to a system's (Unix & Windows) configuration?
The goal is to build a server according to specs (this would include
hardening of the OS + agency specific security settings) then use a HIDS
to detect and alert on any changes.
Theoretically speaking, I know this can be done, but is anyone doing
this?
