Strelka

Strelka is a real-time, container-based file scanning system used for threat hunting, threat detection, and incident response. Originally based on the design established by Lockheed Martin's Laika BOSS and similar projects, Strelka's purpose is to perform file extraction and metadata collection at enterprise scale.

Strelka differs from its sibling projects in a few significant ways:

  • Core codebase is Go and Python 3.9+
  • Server components run in containers for ease and flexibility of deployment
  • OS-native client applications for Windows, Mac, and Linux
  • Built using libraries and formats that allow cross-platform, cross-language support
