Supported Fields for Conditions and Outputs
Here are the fields supported by Falco. These fields can be used in the condition
key of a Falco rule and well as the output
key. Any fields included in the output
key of a rule will also be included in the alert's output_fields
object when json_output
is set to true
.
You can also see this set of fields via falco --list=<source>
, with <source>
being one of the supported sources.
System Calls (source syscall
)
syscall
event source fields are provided by the Falco Drivers.
