+TIGER, or the 'tiger' scripts, is a set of Bourne shell scripts,
+C programs and data files which are used to perform a security audit
+of UNIX systems. It is designed to hopefully be easy to use, easy to
+understand and easy to enhance.
+
+'tiger' incorporates checks primarily oriented towards Linux integrity
+including: md5sums checks installed files, (and it can call AIDE or
+Intergrit aswell), analysis of local listening processes, and then some.
+
+Tiger uses 'chkrootkit' for rootkit scanning if found on the system;
+slackbuilds.org provides a build script for that too.
