Stethoscope: User-Focused Security

Giraffe logo

Stethoscope is a web application that collects information from existing device data sources (e.g., JAMF or LANDESK) on a given user’s devices and gives them clear and specific recommendations for securing their systems. An overview is available on the Netflix Tech Blog.

If you have node (version 6.4+) and npm (included with node) installed already and just want to play around with the front end, run:

make install-develop-ui

Getting Started

Stethoscope consists of two primary pieces: a Python-based back-end and a React-based front-end. Nginx is used to serve static files and route traffic to the back-end.

The easiest way to get up-and-running quickly is through the provided Docker configuration.

Docker

To run with Docker, first install Docker (standard or beta).

We have provided a Docker Compose file, docker-compose.yml, that defines the services that make up Stethoscope. To start these services, run:

docker-compose up

Then connect to the main Nginx web server at http://localhost:5000.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter the following error, you likely need to upgrade docker-compose to version 1.10 or higher.

ERROR: In file './docker-compose.yml' service 'version' doesn't have any configuration options. All top level keys in your docker-compose.yml must map to a dictionary of configuration options.
