• Runs a software updater and system security check.
• Designed for compatible Linux distributions (Arch Linux, LTS kernal here)
• Made for end-user to be able to easily complete these two important parts of system-management
• Is run solely through terminal commands.

Creates two shell aliases(update, security) for:

1. Modularity, not to call the functions directly.
2. Elevatation of env variable expansion to highest possible value.

Checks if common package managers are present and updates found ones. Uses a standard update command for each manager. Sudo is needed as they operate system-wide.

• Looks for (command executed if found):
  1. Pacman
     • sudo pacman -Syu
  2. Yay
     • yay -Syu
  3. Snap
     • sudo snap refresh
  4. Flatpak
     • flatpak update

Based loosely off of key points from the ArchWiki Security section. it executes 4 widely-used security packages to evaluate various aspects of the system.

AIDE is used to:

• Checks for modified/added/deleted files throughout the total file system.
• It creates its own database/s to check against the previous database to detect changes.
• It is quite slow as it is reading/writing and comparing All the files.

Arch-Audit offers an analysis of all installed pacman packages, shows level of issue of package if there is one.

Rkhunter is a complete system malware scan, this application shows only warnings.

Lynis is a robust, full system security analysis tool.

Clone the repo (or simply copy the file/s directly), then:

1. Simply source the file directly i.e. source functions.zsh or . ./functions.zsh

2. Add it your terminal init section to autoload it each session.

3. Call update to run the updater with interactive security check option.

4. Call security to only run the system security check.

Simplified installer script for the program. Enter ./installer.sh to install. Essentially does what is suggested in the 'How to Use' section.

• If unable to execute script, be sure to run chmod +x installer.sh in the programs directory.
