# SignalScope
SignalScope is a local multi-source security analytics agent. Its primary mode connects to Graylog through MCP, discovers the streams and fields already available in your environment, and uses stream profiles to normalize events, build baselines, correlate entities, and explain anomalies with a local LLM.
Its running only locally and if using LLM it's running also locally so no data is sent or exposed outside.
FortiGate is one supported example. The same workflow applies to DNS/AdGuard, Windows Event Logs, Sysmon, Nginx, Squid, VPN, Proxmox, Filebeat-collected logs, and future Graylog streams.
The Python module and legacy `fgai` command remain available for compatibility. New installations can use `signalscope`.
The prioritized implementation plan is tracked in [ROADMAP.md](ROADMAP.md).
Autoblocking is dry-run by default. The tool will not block RFC1918, loopback, multicast, link-local, reserved, or allowlisted addresses unless you change the code.

## Quick Start
```bash
python -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e .
```
Or use the helper script, which creates/uses `.venv` automatically and runs `pip install -e .`:
```bash
./start.sh
./start.sh status
./start.sh analyze
./start.sh stop
```
`./start.sh` starts three local background processes:
- Optional UDP syslog listener writing `logs/fg_syslog.jsonl`
- Continuous monitor writing `state/fgai-status.json`
- Local dashboard at `http://127.0.0.1:8088`
## Primary Workflow: Graylog MCP
Graylog 7.1 MCP is the primary log-source integration. In the dashboard, open
`Settings`, select `Graylog MCP`, provide the MCP URL and a read-only API token,
then load and enable the streams to analyze. SignalScope uses MCP `list_streams`,
`list_fields`, `search_messages`, and `aggregate_messages` to work with existing
log sources rather than requiring every source to be forwarded locally.
The token field accepts a raw Graylog API token, the Base64 value after `Basic `,
or a complete `Basic <value>` header. Tokens are stored only in the local runtime
configuration and are never returned by the dashboard API.
Use `Edit profile` on a stream to load its fields. The field table shows Graylog
datatype/capability metadata and lets you select one or more entity fields, a
time field, and categorical/numeric fields for the stream profile. Profiles are
stored under `graylog_stream_profiles` in `state/fgai-config.json`.
The settings page treats stream enablement and profile editing separately. The
checkboxes decide which streams are monitored. Click `Edit profile` on one stream
to load its fields and edit only that stream's profile; saving with no active
profile editor leaves existing profiles unchanged.
When many Graylog streams are available, use `Diagnostics -> Stream Coverage` to
see which streams are enabled, which have profiles, how many profile fields are
baseline-ready, how many events were fetched, and whether a stream is `ready`,
`learning`, `missing_profile`, `no_events`, or `not_enabled`.
Enabled streams are normalized through the same event model. Stream profiles
define the entity, timestamp, categorical, and numeric fields used for baselines.
The dashboard and Ollama then correlate behavior across sources, for example a
client IP appearing in FortiGate, AdGuard/DNS, Windows Security, Nginx, Squid,
VPN, or Proxmox.
A stream profile can track multiple entities from the same event, such as
`username`, `srcip`, and `hostname`. SignalScope stores profile baselines for
each selected entity value, which makes cross-source investigation work even when
one source is user-centric and another is IP- or host-centric.
SignalScope keeps a common alias map for fields such as source IP, destination
IP, ports, action, severity, service/protocol, DNS query, URL, message, and event
type. This lets Related Activity and correlations work with firewall/proxy/DNS
streams that use names like `src_addr`, `destination.ip`, `dest_port`,
`fw_action`, `priority`, `proto`, or `full_message` without adding a new parser
for every product.
Correlation is entity-aware rather than FortiGate-specific. SignalScope recognizes
common IP fields such as `srcip`, `source_ip`, `remote_addr`, and Windows event
IP fields; account fields such as `username`, `user`, and `TargetUserName`; and
host fields such as `hostname`, `computer`, and `winlog_computer_name`. Configure
the exact entity field per stream in the profile when your Graylog schema differs.
Each profile baseline is stored per stream, entity, selected field, and five-minute
bucket. Once enough history exists, SignalScope compares the current rate or
numeric value to the same UTC weekday/hour where possible, then falls back to the
stream's overall history. Repeated MCP pages are fingerprinted so the same
Graylog event is not learned repeatedly. Related anomalies, profile deviations,
and multi-stream correlations are grouped into investigation incidents with a
compact evidence timeline.
Timeline and related-activity rows include copyable Graylog query details built
from normalized source, destination, action, and DNS fields. These are query
details rather than hard-coded web links, so they work with MCP and with Graylog
deployments behind different URLs or reverse proxies.
Incident lifecycle state is stored locally in `state/signalscope-incidents.json`.
Use the dashboard incident actions to acknowledge, resolve, or reopen an incident
and attach a note. The state is keyed to a stable incident fingerprint so it can
survive monitor refreshes even when the current detection window changes.
Export the current investigation view when you need to share or archive an
incident outside the dashboard:
```bash
signalscope export-investigation --format markdown --output exports/investigation.md
signalscope export-investigation --incident-id <incident-id> --format json
```
The report is built from `state/fgai-status.json` by default and includes
summary counters, stream coverage, incident state, analyst notes, evidence,
timeline rows, and Graylog query details. The dashboard exposes the same data at
`/api/export/incidents?format=markdown` or `format=json`.
With a stream profile in place, SignalScope also builds independent burst
baselines for authentication failures, DNS queries, and deny/block actions when
those events are present. These are evaluated per configured entity, so a Windows
account, DNS client, or firewall source is compared to its own history.
SignalScope also detects ordered behavior sequences across any streams that share
an entity. The built-in sequence is category-based, not source-specific:
`dns_query -> network_connection -> auth_failure`. Those categories can come from
AdGuard, Windows DNS, a proxy, firewall, VPN, endpoint, or any other Graylog
stream as long as the fields normalize into the same generic event model.
Stream profiles can also carry `field_weights` to tune scoring without changing
the baseline itself. Weights are multipliers from `0` to `5` and can target a
field, a detector, or a field+detector pair:
```json
{
"url": 1.5,
"auth_failure_burst": 2,
"query_domain": {
"rare_value": 1.8
}
}
```
Use replay or `replay-graylog --compare-config-file` to test score changes before
applying them to the live profile.
Replay a historic JSONL or Graylog export without changing the live baseline:
```bash
signalscope replay --logs exports/windows-history.jsonl --stream-id <configured-stream-id>
```
Replay uses a temporary SQLite baseline and evaluates events in timestamp order.
It reports detector counts and the findings that would have been generated. Use
the configured stream ID so the export is evaluated with that stream's profile.
Replay directly from Graylog MCP without touching the live baseline:
```bash
signalscope replay-graylog --range-seconds 86400
```
By default this uses the enabled streams from the dashboard configuration. Limit
the run to one or more streams with repeated `--stream-id` flags. To test a
candidate detector/profile configuration before applying it, compare it against
the current runtime config:
```bash
signalscope replay-graylog --range-seconds 86400 --compare-config-file exports/candidate-config.json
```
The comparison reports detector-count, field-finding, and source-anomaly deltas
using the same fetched event window.
The current MCP endpoint is `http://<graylog-host>:9000/api/mcp`. Enable it in
Graylog under `System -> Configurations -> MCP` and use stream IDs internally;
the fgAI stream picker resolves titles in the UI.
For live monitoring, `graylog_range_seconds` controls how far back each MCP poll
searches. The default is one hour, which keeps findings and correlations more
stable than a very short window while still limiting MCP query cost.
## Monitoring Export
The dashboard also exposes Prometheus text metrics at:
```text
http://127.0.0.1:8088/metrics
```
This endpoint is passive and has no Prometheus or Grafana dependency. It reports
low-cardinality event counts, anomaly severities, incident counts, baseline readiness, and Graylog
MCP health. Use it later as a Prometheus scrape target or as input for a Checkmk
local check. Do not use source IPs, domains, or raw event IDs as metric labels.
Enable cached Ollama analyst notes in the dashboard:
```bash
FGAI_LLM=1 OLLAMA_MODEL=llama3.1 ./start.sh restart
```
The monitor refreshes deterministic detections every `FGAI_MONITOR_INTERVAL` seconds and refreshes the LLM note every `FGAI_LLM_INTERVAL` seconds, default `300`.
The script activates `.venv` inside the script process. If you also want your current shell prompt to show the venv, run:
```bash
source .venv/bin/activate
```
For UDP `514`, the script starts only the listener command with `sudo`:
```bash
FGAI_SYSLOG_PORT=514 ./start.sh
```
The syslog receiver rotates the active JSONL input at 25 MB by default. Rotated
files are gzip-compressed and 14 archives are retained. Override this when needed:
```bash
FGAI_LOG_ROTATE_BYTES=$((100 * 1024 * 1024)) FGAI_LOG_ROTATE_COUNT=30 ./start.sh restart
```
The continuous monitor also stores a local SQLite behavior baseline at
`state/fgai-baseline.sqlite3`. A source becomes baseline-ready after 12 completed
five-minute windows. Historical rate and hitcount-rate deviations then contribute
to its anomaly score. Set `FGAI_BASELINE_DB` to use another location.
SignalScope prunes old baseline buckets during each monitor cycle. The defaults
keep 14 days of buckets and dedupe history, prune stale one-off categorical
values after 7 days, and cap high-cardinality values per stream/entity/field.
Tune these in the dashboard or in `state/fgai-config.json`:
```json
{
"baseline_training_days": 7,
"baseline_retention_days": 14,
"baseline_value_retention_days": 7,
"baseline_max_values_per_field": 2000
}
```
`baseline_training_days` is the minimum baseline age before profile deviations
are promoted into live triage. For production data, set this to the amount of
history you trust, commonly `7` to `14` days. The dashboard shows fields as
`learning` until both bucket count and baseline age are sufficient.
If an existing baseline database has already grown large, stop the monitor and
run a manual prune plus SQLite compaction:
```bash
signalscope baseline-maintenance --baseline-db state/fgai-baseline.sqlite3 --retention-days 14 --value-retention-days 7 --max-values-per-field 2000 --vacuum
```
`VACUUM` can take time on a large database and should not be run while the
monitor is actively writing.
Analyze local logs:
```bash
fgai analyze-logs --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl
```
Open the live UI after `./start.sh`:
```bash
xdg-open http://127.0.0.1:8088
```
Score likely traffic anomalies:
```bash
fgai detect-anomalies --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl --min-score 35
fgai detect-anomalies --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl --min-score 35 --llm --llm-timeout 300
```
Generate response and policy recommendations:
```bash
fgai recommend --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl --min-score 35
```
Optional external reputation enrichment is disabled by default. To use VirusTotal for public source/destination IP reputation:
```bash
export FGAI_THREAT_INTEL=1
export ABUSEIPDB_API_KEY='...'
fgai recommend --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl --min-score 35 --threat-intel
```
VirusTotal is also supported:
```bash
export FGAI_THREAT_INTEL=1
export FGAI_THREAT_INTEL_PROVIDER=virustotal
export VIRUSTOTAL_API_KEY='...'
fgai recommend --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl --min-score 35 --threat-intel
```
Threat intelligence can also be configured in the dashboard settings. Choose
`auto`, `abuseipdb`, or `virustotal`, paste the provider API key, and set the
daily lookup budget and cache TTLs. API keys are stored only in the local config
file and are not returned back to the browser after saving.
Threat intelligence responses are cached locally in `state/threat-intel-cache.json`. Successful results are reused for seven days by default, failures for one hour, and SignalScope permits at most 100 new provider lookups per UTC day. Cached responses are returned even after that budget is reached. Tune these safeguards in the dashboard or with `FGAI_THREAT_INTEL_TTL_SECONDS`, `FGAI_THREAT_INTEL_ERROR_TTL_SECONDS`, and `FGAI_THREAT_INTEL_DAILY_LIMIT`.
Listen for FortiGate syslog locally:
```bash
fgai listen-syslog --port 5514 --output logs/fg_syslog.jsonl
```
Run the listener quietly in the background:
```bash
./start.sh
```
Stop the background listener:
```bash
./start.sh stop
```
UDP port `514` normally needs root privileges on Linux:
```bash
sudo .venv/bin/fgai listen-syslog --port 514 --output logs/fg_syslog.jsonl
```
Test FortiGate API access:
```bash
export FORTIGATE_HOST=192.0.2.10
export FORTIGATE_API_TOKEN='...'
export FORTIGATE_VERIFY_TLS=false
fgai test-connection
fgai fetch-policies --output exports/policies.json
```
Audit a FortiGate policy export:
```bash
fgai audit-policies --config exports/fortigate.conf
```
Or fetch policies through the FortiGate API and audit that JSON:
```bash
fgai fetch-policies --output exports/policies.json
fgai audit-policies --config exports/policies.json --llm --llm-timeout 300
```
Find block candidates without changing the firewall:
```bash
fgai suggest-blocks --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl
```
Execute guarded quarantine actions:
```bash
export FORTIGATE_HOST=192.0.2.10
export FORTIGATE_API_TOKEN='...'
fgai suggest-blocks --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl --execute --expiry-minutes 60
```
Optional local LLM summary through Ollama:
```bash
ollama pull llama3.3
fgai analyze-logs --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl --llm --llm-timeout 300
```
For slower machines or large models:
```bash
OLLAMA_MODEL=llama3.1 OLLAMA_TIMEOUT=300 fgai analyze-logs --logs logs/fg_syslog.jsonl --llm
```
## Optional FortiGate Input
## Synthetic Windows Test Input
For testing a Graylog Beats input without a Windows host, generate Windows
Security-style JSONL events locally, then use Filebeat to ship them over TCP:
```bash
python scripts/generate_windows_events.py --interval 0.5
filebeat -e -c examples/filebeat-windows-synthetic.yml
```
Update the absolute JSONL path and Graylog host in the Filebeat template first.
Route `stream_hint: Windows` to a dedicated Graylog stream, then enable that
stream in SignalScope and configure a profile such as entity `user` or
`source_ip`, categorical `event_id`, `status`, `logon_type`, and numeric fields
when present. Filebeat uses its Logstash output to communicate with Graylog's
Beats input on TCP `5044`. [Graylog Beats input documentation](https://go2docs.graylog.org/current/getting_in_log_data/beats_input.html)
For logs, configure FortiGate syslog to write into a local file such as `logs/fg_syslog.jsonl`. The parser supports common key/value syslog lines and JSONL.
For policies, export a FortiOS config backup and pass it to `audit-policies`.
Example FortiGate syslog target, run on the FortiGate CLI and replace the server IP with this machine:
```text
config log syslogd setting
set status enable
set server "192.0.2.50"
set port 5514
set mode udp
set format default
end
```
## Environment
- `FORTIGATE_HOST`: firewall hostname or IP.
- `FORTIGATE_API_TOKEN`: REST API token.
- `FORTIGATE_VERIFY_TLS`: `true` or `false`, defaults to `true`.
- `FGAI_ALLOWLIST`: comma-separated IPs/CIDRs never to block.
- `OLLAMA_HOST`: defaults to `http://127.0.0.1:11434`.
- `OLLAMA_MODEL`: defaults to `llama3.1`.
- `OLLAMA_TIMEOUT`: Ollama request timeout in seconds, defaults to `180`.
- `FGAI_LLM`: set to `1` to enable dashboard Ollama analyst notes.
- `FGAI_LLM_INTERVAL`: seconds between dashboard LLM notes, defaults to `300`.
- `FGAI_THREAT_INTEL`: set to `1` to enable external threat intelligence lookups.
- `ABUSEIPDB_API_KEY`: AbuseIPDB API key for public IP reputation enrichment.
- `ABUSEIPDB_MAX_AGE_DAYS`: report age window for AbuseIPDB, defaults to `90`.
- `FGAI_THREAT_INTEL_PROVIDER`: `auto`, `abuseipdb`, or `virustotal`.
- `VIRUSTOTAL_API_KEY`: VirusTotal API key for public IP reputation enrichment.
## Safety Model
The agent separates detection from enforcement:
- UTM events are scored from FortiGate logs (`ips`, `virus`, `anomaly`, `ddos`, `webfilter`, `app-ctrl`, `waf`, `dns`).
- Source IPs must be globally routable and outside the allowlist.
- Blocking requires `--execute`.
- The FortiGate API call is limited to the quarantine/banned user monitor endpoint.
