Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment tool management

Last Updated : Jun 10, 2026 |

Advanced Intrusion Detection Environment (AIDE) is a tool for monitoring file system changes. AIDE creates a baseline database of system layer files and then verifies the integrity of the files by comparing the database to the actual state of the system layer files. AIDE only performs file integrity checks and does not provide other checks, such as rootkit searches.

Important:

Software-only deployments do not include the AIDE tool. If you want to use AIDE on Avaya Aura® Web Gateway deployed as a software-only application, you must install AIDE separately.

On Avaya Aura® Web Gateway, you can manage AIDE using the fsit.sh system layer script, which is located in the /opt/Avaya/bin directory. The fsit.sh script is available after you deploy the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway OVA.

Avaya recommends that you run AIDE scanning at least once a week.
