Hi All,
We have a requirement to monitor files details like file name, file size, file created date, file ownership, etc, all within a particular directory.
Is there any beats agent that can be used for this monitoring? I explored all modules in metricbeat and filebeat but could not find anything related for this requirement.
We want to monitor the database backup files of various DBs like mysql, mariadb, mongodb, postgresql, elasticsearch, clickhouse etc. etc..
Every day new file gets created and older files gets deleted. So we want to monitor all the files in a given directory, and send the data to elasticsearch periodically, say 5 minutes or so..
Please share your inputs.

Take a look at [File Integrity Module | Auditbeat Reference [8.3] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/beats/auditbeat/current/auditbeat-module-file_integrity.html)
