Falco: Support Falco running with sandboxed runtimes

Created on 24 Sep 2020  路  6Comments  路  Source: falcosecurity/falco

Motivation

Falco is great. I want Falco. But I also want to run the workload using a sandboxed runtime like kata containers. I hate choosing; I want both things.

Feature

It'd be awesome to be able to run either the kernel module or eBPF inside the guest kernel and have this available for Falco on the host. From taking a quick look @ https://sysdig.com/blog/understanding-common-library-implementation/, I'm hopeful that this is feasible, and we could have SCAP <-> sinsp communication occur over vsock between the guest/host.

Alternatives

I have to choose either Falco or sandboxed runtime.

Additional context

I haven't spent a lot of time yet looking through Falco yet, but before investing I am interested in high-level feedback like:

  • "Yes, this is a good idea, very straight-forward"
  • "no this doesn't make any sense"
  • something in between.

+1 this - we run a lot of gVisor workloads _because_ they're higher risk, and so getting insights into these would be awesome
