Each event captures execution and system metadata, including:
  • Timestamps
  • Process and user identifiers (PID / UID)
  • Command name, binary path, and arguments
  • File paths (for file events)
  • Network details such as the 5-tuple and byte counts (for network events)
  • Container and cgroup identifiers
  • The configured node label
This allows activity to be correlated across hosts and workloads.

What the collector does not capture

The collector does not capture sensitive content by default. This includes:
  • File contents
  • Packet payloads
  • Memory regions
  • Environment variables
  • Process memory
  • Credentials
  • Any user data beyond what standard system tools like ps, lsof, or ss would expose
In other words, the agent observes system activity at the metadata level only unless you opt a host into content inspection (DAG_CONTENT_INSPECT). When that is enabled, the source file of a DATA_FLOW to a public destination may be copied (100 MiB cap, 30-day retention, global-admin view) into in-tenant object storage. Packet payloads and memory are still never captured.
