Abstract
A kernel driver on an endpoint uses a process cache to provide a stream of events associated with processes on the endpoint to a data recorder. The process cache can usefully provide related information about processes such as a name, type or path for the process to the data recorder through the kernel driver. Where a tamper protection cache or similarly secured repository is available, this secure information may also be provided to the data recorder for use in threat detection, forensic analysis and so forth.
