Welcome to the Stackrox Collector project documentation. Here you can learn

more about idea behind the project, how to start guidelines, design overview

and detailed references.

Collector is a component of Stackrox responsible for gathering runtime data. In

a few words it is an agent that runs on every node under strict performance

limitations and gathers the data via kernel modules or eBPF probes (the default

collection mode nowadays). To implement eBPF probes and collect data, the

project leverages the Falco libraries via a custom

[fork](https://github.com/stackrox/falcosecurity-libs).
