As general info, this is a broader osquery slack. I believe Uptycs distributes a fork, so anything uptycs specific we won’t know much about #uptycs exists.

But folks here are always pretty happy to talk, and we try to be friendly.

it’s a big topic. You can ask pretty much anything on general, though you might get pointed to another channel

I tend to think about osquery as an API translation layer. If you want to know something, there’s a good chance there’s a table to translate that api to osquery, and then I can construct my questions in sql.
