Per OPORD 16-0080, the preferred intrusion detection system is McAfee Endpoint Security for Linux (ENSL) in conjunction with SELinux.

Procedure:
Check that the following package has been installed:

# rpm -qa | grep -i mcafeetp

If the "mcafeetp" package is not installed, this is a finding.

Verify that the daemon is running:

# ps -ef | grep -i mfetpd

If the daemon is not running, this is a finding.
