Event-generator is a testing tool designed to generate various suspect actions that trigger detection by Falco rulesets. The tool creates simulated security events and activities that can be used to test and validate Falco's runtime security monitoring capabilities. The tool requires Falco 0.37.0 or newer for compatibility with version v0.11.0 and later releases. It is specifically designed to work with Falco's rule engine to produce events that match known threat patterns and suspicious behaviors. Due to the nature of the generated events, the tool can modify system files and directories in locations such as /bin, /etc, and /dev. The developers strongly recommend running the program within a Docker container to isolate these potentially system-altering actions from the host environment. Event-generator serves as a validation mechanism for security teams to ensure their Falco deployment is properly configured and capable of detecting the types of threats it was designed to identify. It provides a controlled way to test detection rules without relying on actual malicious activity.
