Lightweight Cloud Forwarder Agent for Windows Event Logs

Project description

logwatch-agent

An ultra-lightweight Windows Event Log forwarder that natively streams system events to your centralized Cloud Anomaly Detection Dashboard.


Installation

pip install logwatch-agent

Quick Start

You must have an API Key generated from your central Dashboard. Open a Command Prompt or PowerShell and start the agent:

logwatch-agent start --server https://yourdomain.com --key YOUR_API_KEY

The agent will immediately:

  1. Begin scanning your Windows Event Viewer in real-time.
  2. Discard harmless "noise" events directly at the edge to save bandwidth.
  3. Stream critical error and warning logs to the centralized AI engine for anomaly scoring.

Architecture

This package contains zero machine learning code. It is an extremely lightweight edge client designed to use minimal CPU and RAM on the host machine. All AI inference (Isolation Forest) and alerting happens centrally on the backend server.
