eBPF is a technology, not a complete security solution. It can provide access to useful system-level data, but collecting that data does not automatically detect threats or prevent attacks.
Security depends on the logic and tooling built around the data. Detection signatures, baseline behavior, and drift analysis can help identify suspicious activity when they are designed and implemented effectively. Projects such as Falco illustrate how eBPF can support security monitoring, while Cilium uses eBPF for networking and observability capabilities.
The distinction matters: visibility gives defenders information, but effective detection requires additional engineering, context, and validation.
If eBPF gives you the visibility, what should your security stack do next to turn that data into actionable detection?
