Explanation
When a Linux host is in Reduced Functionality Mode (RFM), the sensor would provide minimal protection. RFM is a mode that limits the sensor's functionality due to license expiration, network connectivity loss, or certificate validation failure. When a Linux sensor is in RFM, it will only provide basic prevention capabilities, such as blocking known malware hashes and preventing script execution from the /tmp directory. The sensor will not send any telemetry or detection events to the Falcon platform, and will not receive any policy or update changes from the Falcon
