Embodiments consistent with the present disclosure provide systems and methods for providing namespace-aware provenance tracking in a containerized environment. In some embodiments, methods for providing namespace-aware provenance tracking in a containerized environment may include monitoring, by one or more custom kernel hooks, event audit records from an OS kernel, wherein the one or more custom kernel hooks extend the functionality of the OS kernel; augmenting the event audit records from the OS kernel with one or more additional namespace aware audit records that include namespace information related to the container associated with event audit records, wherein the namespace information related to the container includes namespace IDs; processing, by an audit reporter, the namespace aware audit records to interpret the namespace IDs contained within the namespace aware audit records; and creating namespace-aware provenance graph that is namespace and container aware based on the namespace aware audit records.
