qssign -s|S <secret> [-e] [-v] [-u <name>] [-f <regex>] [-a 'sha1'|'sha256']

qssign is a log data integrity check tool. It reads log data from stdin (pipe) and writes the data to stdout adding a sequence number and signature to ever log line.

-s <secret>

Passphrase used to calculate signature.

-S <program>

Specifies a program which writes the passphrase to stdout.

-e

Writes start/end marker when starting/stopping data signing.

-v

Verification mode checking the integrity of signed data.

-u <name>

Becomes another user, e.g. www-data.

-f <regex>

Filter pattern (case sensitive regular expression) for messages which do not need to be signed.

-a 'sha1'|'sha256'

Specifies the algorithm to use. Default is sha1.

Sign:

TransferLog "|/usr/bin/qssign -s password -e |/usr/bin/qsrotate -o /var/log/apache/access.log"

Verify:

cat access.log | qssign -s password -v
