Ransomware as a Service- Beyond the Horizon

RaaS vs. DRaaS: The Evil Twin of Cybersecurity Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) is the evil twin of Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS).

Turns any command into a plugin: check_rungrep

Imagine you have one more special thing to monitor. While our Icinga 2 can observe infrastructure of almost any size, it still needs a plugin for each kind of check. Unfortunately not every command meets the monitoring plugin API: exit code 0-3 (ok, warning, critical, unknown), performance data, etc. E.g. often programs exit with 1 in case of a fatal error, which is considered just a warning by Icinga.
