Abstracts

I'll tell what system calls are in Linux and how they can improve our security monitoring. We will discuss what free, open-source tools are available for analyzing system calls in Linux, their pros and cons, and basic principles

I’ll tell you what kind of tool Falco is, why we chose it and what advantages it provides. We will take a look at the Falco a little bit "under the hood" and try to figure out how it works in detail. I’ll tell you about my own experience with Falco, what challenges and problems we encountered during its implementation.
We will also touch on the differences in using Falco in K8S from the classic Linux infrastructure, as well as alternative approaches for K8S.

We will discuss the logic of Falco detection rules, honestly address the existing problems with them, and understand how the GitOps approach could help us manage Falco detection rules.
