Prosser Flare distributed monitoring platform

01 / THE PROBLEM

Visibility where the Internet can't see.

Important infrastructure often lives inside private networks, security zones and VRFs that conventional Internet-facing monitoring cannot directly reach.

Prosser Flare is engineered around that reality: place lightweight Eyes close to the systems they observe, then report outward to Watchtower—gaining visibility without weakening the segmentation that protects those environments.

02 / SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

Local Eyes. Central perspective.

01

Eye

Lightweight, headless Linux probes deployed inside the network or security zone they are responsible for observing.

02

Watchtower

The central Prosser Flare component for consolidated visibility, historical information, alerting and the evolving Watchtower View.

03 / DESIGN PRINCIPLES

01

Distributed

Place monitoring within the environment instead of forcing visibility across security boundaries.

02

Outbound-oriented

Eyes report outward rather than becoming bridges between otherwise separated zones or VRFs.

03

Modular

Add monitors to an existing Eye or deploy additional Eyes as the environment grows.

04

Operational

Designed for useful infrastructure visibility without requiring an elaborate monitoring appliance at every location.

04 / DEVELOPMENT STATE

Built in the real world.

Working now: the Eye architecture is operational on headless Linux hardware and the distributed multi-probe model has been established.

In development: Watchtower centralization, additional notification methods, repeatable Eye and monitor onboarding, recommended hardware standards and Watchtower View.
