Capsule8 performs advanced behavioral monitoring for cloud-native, containers, and traditional Linux-based servers. This repository contains the open-source core of the Capsule8-Sensor, which is based on KProbes. It also contains example Sensor API client code.

Status

The Kprobe based sensor is currently under active development. The gRPC API is v0 and subject to change at any time, but we strive to keep the sample code in examples/ updated with any changes to the API.

Quickstart

For a quick demonstration of the Capsule8 sensor's capabilities, start up three terminal sessions to run the sensor, example telemetry client, and target container as described below.

Checkout latest code

$ go get -v github.com/capsule8/capsule8
$ git submodule init && git submodule update

Build the sensor

$ make

Start the sensor

Start the sensor and listen for API clients on the default local unix socket:

$ sudo ./bin/sensor

Subscribe to telemetry for specified container images

The example telemetry client in examples/telemetry provides a demonstration of how to use the Telemetry API. It subscribes to the following telemetry:

process lifecycle events (fork, execve, and exit)
open(2) system call return values
file open events for any file name matching the glob *foo*
kernel function calls to SyS_connect involving IPv4 addresses and returning the parsed out sockaddr structure elements
container lifecycle events (created, running, exited, destroyed)

If the -image <glob> argument is specified on the command-line, then events will be filtered to only containers running images with names matching the specified glob.

$ go build examples/telemetry/main.go
$ sudo ./examples/telemetry/telemetry -image busy*

Generate events in a matching container

In order to generate matching telemetry, start a busybox container in another terminal:

$ docker run --rm -it busybox
docker run --rm -it busybox
/ # ls
bin   dev   etc   home  proc  root  sys   tmp   usr   var
/ # cat /foo
cat: can't open '/foo': No such file or directory
/ # exit
