Falco can detect and alert on any behavior that involves making Linux system calls.
Falco alerts are triggered based on specific system calls, arguments, and properties
of the calling process. Falco operates at the user space and kernel space. The system
calls are interpreted by the Falco kernel module. The syscalls are then analyzed using
the libraries in the userspace. The events are then filtered using a rules engine
where the Falco rules are configured. Suspicious events are then alerted to outputs
that are configured as Syslog, files, Standard Output, and others.
