About CatLogs
CatLogs gathers historical commands and system events from across your Linux machine and displays them in a searchable, sortable interface. It reads shell histories, auth and journal logs, boot/power events, session lock and login activity, live process data, scanner results, and PDF-ready audit exports.
All data stays on your machine. CatLogs makes no network connections and sends nothing anywhere. You can export filtered views to CSV or generate a professional PDF audit report for local security reviews.
