Incident response, start to finish, in one workspace.
DFIR-IRIS is the open-source platform where responders run investigations together — cases, timelines, evidence and war rooms in one workspace, on your own infrastructure.

IRIS v3 is coming in to land.
Everything on this page is v3 — the rebuilt case view, war rooms with teams and threads, the new API. It is in final testing now. Follow the approach and we'll tell you the moment it touches down.
One case. The whole investigation.
Open a case in seconds. Assets, IOCs, tasks and evidence, captured as the investigation moves and kept honest by a full audit trail.

The full DFIR toolkit. One open-source platform.
SIEM, EDR, and REST-fed alerts land in one queue — cluster, triage, and promote to a case in one click.
Hosts, users, endpoints, accounts — every asset touched by the incident tracked in the case record.
Indicators typed, tagged, and shareable. Enrich them from VirusTotal or MISP without leaving the case.
Assign work, track state, and keep the checklist honest. Tasks live inside cases and inside war rooms.
Rich-text notes saved as you type. Group them by directory, link them to assets, keep the narrative alive.
Drop artefacts, IRIS hashes and tags them. Chain of custody, verified by SHA-256, ready to hand off.
One click turns the case into an exec summary, technical report, or court-ready PDF. Templates configurable.
Every event, alert, and action on one investigation timeline — enriched with evidence, exportable as a narrative.
Real-time chat, slash commands, per-room teams. Every decision on the record, every attachment routed to evidence.
Case-level and group-level RBAC. Restrict who can read, edit, or export — with a full audit trail behind every action.
First-party and community modules — IrisMISP, IrisVT, IrisCheck, IrisWebHooks. 162 hook bindings, all auditable.
Every action in IRIS is scriptable. Push, pull, and automate — IRIS is a platform, not a silo.
IRIS is free. Its backers keep it flying.
As a free and open-source project, we rely on our community to keep development going and the platform improving. If IRIS is useful to your team, please consider supporting us financially through OpenCollective.
