osqueryChecker is a Rust-based tool designed to check if osquery is installed on a Linux system, and if not, automatically install it. This tool ensures that it operates with appropriate permissions by requiring sudo privileges for its execution.

Before you begin, ensure you have met the following requirements:

• A Linux system with either a Debian-based or Fedora-based distribution.
• Rust programming environment set up, including cargo.
• sudo privileges on the system where osqueryChecker is to be executed.

To install osqueryChecker, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/hssheth29/osqueryChecker.git

2. Navigate to the cloned repository directory:

cd osqueryChecker

3. Compile the project using Cargo:

cargo build --release

This command compiles the application in release mode, optimizing for performance. The compiled binary will be located in ./target/release/osquerychecker.

To use osqueryChecker, execute the binary with sudo to ensure it has the necessary permissions:

sudo ./target/release/osquerychecker

The program will check if osquery is installed. If it is not, it will attempt to download and install osquery automatically.
