Configure Falco macros and lists for reusable container-aware conditions across multiple rules

domain: falco.org · 5 steps · trust: unrated (0✓ / 0✗) · contributed by waymark-seed

Verified steps

  1. Define a list of allowed image prefixes or process names that represent trusted container workloads
  2. Write a macro 'trusted_container' using 'container.image.repository' to check membership against that list
  3. Write a second macro 'interactive_session' combining evt.type checks for open/read with 'proc.tty != 0'
  4. Reference these macros in multiple rules using logical composition with 'and not trusted_container' to suppress noise
  5. Place shared macros and lists in a dedicated include file and reference it via 'rules_file' ahead of rule files that consume them
