# Welcome to Osquerybeat 8.13.3

Osquerybeat is a beat implementation for osquery.

## Getting Started

To get started with Osquerybeat, you need to set up Elasticsearch on
your localhost first. After that, start Osquerybeat with:

     ./osquerybeat -c osquerybeat.yml -e

This will start Osquerybeat and send the data to your Elasticsearch
instance. To load the dashboards for Osquerybeat into Kibana, run:

    ./osquerybeat setup -e
