Detect security threats in real time

Falco is a cloud native security tool that provides runtime security across hosts, containers, Kubernetes, and cloud environments. It leverages custom rules on Linux kernel events and other data sources through plugins, enriching event data with contextual metadata to deliver real-time alerts. Falco enables the detection of abnormal behavior, potential security threats, and compliance violations.

Try Falco

Threat Detection

Detect malicious behavior in hosts and containers, no matter what scale, using the power of eBPF.

Regulatory Compliance

Stay compliant in cloud-native systems with Falco's intelligent monitoring and rule-based detection.

What makes Falco different?

Cloud Native

Falco detects threats across containers, Kubernetes, hosts and cloud services.

Uses eBPF to monitor system activity for adverse behavior.
Integrated with Kubernetes.
Use plugins to monitor cloud services such as GitHub, Okta, or AWS Cloudtrail.

Real Time Detection

Falco provides streaming detection of unexpected behavior, configuration changes, and attacks.

Runtime detection is a fundamental layer of defense against security blind spots and zero-day bugs in your software supply chain.
Streaming approach enables real-time response while minimizing storage costs and complexity.
Ready out-of-the-box with rules, which you can customize for your environment.
