Falco

Open-source cloud-native runtime security tool for detecting threats in Linux

Falco is an open-source cloud-native runtime security project from the CNCF that detects unexpected behavior, intrusions, and data theft in Linux systems and Kubernetes clusters. It uses kernel-level system call monitoring to detect threats like privilege escalation, cryptomining, shell spawning in containers, and unusual network connections in real time. Falco's rule engine is highly customizable, and its integration with alert systems (Slack, PagerDuty, Elasticsearch) enables rapid incident response to detected threats.
