I have a question about CrowdStrike and Linux. From what I gather is that works on a very low level on Windows. Does it work on such low level on Linux too? The reason I am asking is because the league of legend anti cheat also works on such low level on windows and that is the reason the game can not be played on Linux. From what I remember Linux doesn't allow such low level access So how crowdStrike work on Linux?

I don't know that software at all, but regarding Linux, we can have anything at any level once you give the admin access, a.k.a. "root" (e.g. binary files that are "attached" to the kernel for a purpose, like making a piece of hardware work.) so... Yes, probably it's on a similarly low level.

Not if you harden the kernel

Linux has kernel modules which are kind of equivalent to Windows kernel drivers.

Anticheat is malware do not use it. It isn't worth playing one game.

I am not using it. I do not care about leagues of legends, I was curious why it crowedstrike works on Linux with such low access while league dooes not.
