Summary

InfluxDB Endpoint Security State Template is a community-created template that helps verify the security state of public endpoints by continuously monitoring their authentication and SSL certificates. The template uses InfluxDB to track the state of web service authentication and SSL certificates, providing insights into service availability, certificate validity, and authentication functionality. It also enables operators to automate certificate renewal and detects potential security issues such as DoS attacks, authentication failures, or expired certificates. The template can be easily set up using the InfluxDB CLI environment and Telegraf configuration, allowing developers to quickly build solutions and improve their security posture.
