Libprelude is a collection of generic functions providing communication between all Sensors, like IDS (Intrusion Detection System), and the Prelude Manager. It provides a convenient interface for sending and receiving IDMEF (Information and Event Message Exchange Format) alerts to Prelude Manager with transparent SSL, fail-over and replication support, asynchronous events and timer interfaces, an abstracted configuration API (hooking at the command-line, the configuration line, or wide configuration, available from the Manager), and a generic plugin API. It allows you to easily turn your favorite security program into a Prelude sensor.
