MITRE ATT&CK framework for container runtime security with Falco.
Blog post from Sysdig
The MITRE ATT&CK framework is a comprehensive knowledge base detailing over 200 techniques used by adversaries during cyber attacks, categorized into tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) across 11 categories such as execution, persistence, and privilege escalation. Falco, an open-source container security tool, leverages this framework to detect anomalous activities in containers by monitoring system calls and generating event streams. Falco's rules engine allows for the creation of alerts based on these streams, focusing on containerized environments with 46 rules aligned with eight key MITRE frameworks. It provides users the ability to write rules at the host level to identify suspicious activities, enhancing the security of containerized applications by addressing various adversarial tactics and techniques.
