Security without visibility is like a goalkeeper facing penalties blindfolded. Yet, many Kubernetes environments operate without real-time security visibility, making them an easy target for misconfigurations, runtime threats, and compliance failures. It’s time to take off the blindfold.

Falco, the open-source runtime security tool, plays a key role in detecting suspicious activity by leveraging eBPF and syscall monitoring. But security doesn’t stop at runtime, combining Falco with other CNCF projects like Trivy (vulnerability scanning), Kyverno (policy enforcement), OpenTelemetry (observability), and OPA/Gatekeeper (admission control) creates a multi-layered security approach.

This session will showcase how these tools work together, from Trivy’s build-time scans to Falco’s runtime detection, helping teams secure Kubernetes, integrate with CI/CD, and meet compliance standards like SOC2 and CIS Benchmarks.
