GKE security with Falco and Google Cloud Security Command Center

Sysdig has announced the integration of its open-source project, Sysdig Falco, with Google Cloud Security Command Center (SCC) to enhance Kubernetes and container runtime security. This integration allows Sysdig Falco to send Kubernetes security events to Google Cloud SCC, providing a centralized view of security events within Google Cloud infrastructure. The deployment involves using the Sysdig Google Cloud SCC connector and configuring Falco to forward alerts to this connector, enabling real-time security event monitoring. The integration is particularly beneficial for those building their infrastructure and who may not require the full suite of enterprise features offered by Sysdig Secure. Once configured, the system provides detailed information about security events, including asset ID, event timing, Kubernetes pod name, container ID, and the specific security rule triggered, thus enhancing the visibility and management of security threats in cloud environments.
