tls-rpt-monitor

Simple. Stupid. TLS Report monitoring.

Find out when something goes wrong. Don't find out when it doesn't. Simple.

This tool listens for TLS RPT reports over HTTPS POST, and if it receives one indicating an error, sends an email to the configured email address.

I created it because who has time to waste reading reports every day?

RFC8460.

Environment Variables (& Configuration)

Confg.json

Most of these values have defaults that can be left. Recipients must be populated, or alerts won't be sent.

Variable	Type	Notes
emailCooldown	Number	Basic cooldown to prevent spam. Will not send an alert if it has been less than emailCooldown seconds since the last one.
ignoredSenders	Array	Senders to ignore. Matched against report organisation name
recipients	Object	Recipient mappings. More information below.

Setting up recipients

The recipients object must be key-value pairs of domain: receivers. Receivers can be either a single string (email address), an array of email addresses, or a comma seperated list of email addresses which will get alerts for that domain. A catch-all can also be specified, using otherwise as the key. All alerts without a domain entry will be sent to those receivers.

To have all emails sent to a given email address, use the below:

{
  "recipients": {
    "otherwise": "[email protected]"
  }
}
