Issue/Introduction

Does the EDR (formerly CB Response) sensor utilize auditd on Linux?

Environment

  • EDR Linux Sensor: All versions
  • EDR Linux Server: All versions
  • Linux: All versions

Resolution

No. The Linux sensor gathers event/binary data through Linux Security Modules hooks and through our kernel module. It does not rely on auditd or any other third-party process.
