## Where does Infection Monkey store runtime artifacts?
The Infection Monkey agent may need to access or create some files on systems while running, such as during the execution of custom post-breach actions or when attempting the Zerologon exploit.
### Monkey Island server
The Island server will need to store some files on the system on which it is running, such as the Island logs and any custom post-breach action files.
For this, it uses a "data directory" which can be configured in the `data_dir` field in the `server_config.json` file. The default data directory on Linux is `$HOME/.monkey_island`, and on Windows is `%AppData%\monkey_island`.
Any runtime artifacts will be stored in the data directory.
### Infection Monkey agent
The Monkey agent will need to store or create some files on the system on which it is running. This includes the agent binaries, logs, and any files needed for the execution of custom post-breach actions or when attempting the Zerologon exploit.
It does so by creating temporary directories on the system and storing the data there.
