What it shows

  • Captures raw syscalls in the Linux kernel via eBPF with sub-millisecond lag
  • Validates execution events against declarative YAML threat detection rules
  • Dispatches real-time alerts to Slack, SIEM, or trigger automated pod kills

The takeaway

Kernel-level visibility detects runtime container intrusions without patching application code.
