Technical architecture
How Flowtriq works
The full stack — for operators who need to understand before they deploy.
Kernel-level capture
AF_PACKET + BPF — every packet header, unsampled, at line rate. No NetFlow infrastructure. No router changes.
Dynamic baselines
Adaptive per-node baselines. Auto-learns in ~5 minutes. No manual thresholds. Handles traffic growth and diurnal patterns without false positives.
BGP FlowSpec automation
Confidence-gated rules with auto-rollback. Works with ExaBGP, GoBGP, BIRD 2, FRRouting. Detection to BGP in under 2 seconds.
PCAP ring buffer
Pre-attack capture flushed at incident declaration — packet-level evidence attached to the incident record automatically.
Lightweight agent
<30 MB RAM, <0.1% CPU idle. systemd service. Any modern Linux (Ubuntu 20.04+, Debian 11+, CentOS 8+). No DPDK, no PF_RING, no kernel module.
Multi-tenancy
Workspace-based RBAC. ISPs and MSPs manage customer nodes under isolated workspaces with separate alerting and reporting.
