Feature	Sysdig 13/17 features	Upwind 11/17 features
Posture, workload and entitlement modules in one platform CSPM, workload protection and CIEM ship as modules of one product under one console and one data model.	Yes	Yes
Agentless workload vulnerability scanning Scans VM disks, container images and serverless functions for known CVEs without installing an agent.	Yes	Yes
Runtime threat detection with a workload sensor An optional agent or eBPF sensor detects malicious behavior on hosts and containers as it happens.	Yes	Yes
Container and Kubernetes runtime protection Detects and can block suspicious processes, network activity and privilege changes inside running pods.	Yes	Yes
Container image scanning in CI pipelines and registries Scans images at build time and in registries, with policy gates that fail a build on critical findings.	Yes	No
Code-to-cloud tracing of findings Links a runtime or cloud finding back to the repository, file and commit that introduced it.	No	No
Secrets detection in code and workloads Finds hardcoded credentials and keys in repositories, container images and deployed cloud resources.	No	No
Unified security graph across cloud resources Models relationships between identities, network, data and workloads so findings can be queried across modules.	Yes	Yes
Toxic combination detection Correlates findings from several modules into one prioritized issue, such as an exposed host with a critical CVE and admin rights.	Yes	No
Cloud detection and response (CDR) Ingests cloud audit and network logs to detect and investigate active attacks against the cloud control plane.	Yes	Yes
Data security posture management (DSPM) module Discovers and classifies sensitive data across cloud data stores as part of the same platform.	Yes	Yes
Software composition analysis for open-source dependencies Identifies vulnerable third-party packages in application code and container images.	Yes	Yes
Serverless function protection Scans and monitors AWS Lambda, Azure Functions and Google Cloud Functions for vulnerabilities and risky permissions.	No	Yes
API security discovery Inventories APIs exposed by cloud workloads and flags unauthenticated or sensitive endpoints.	No	Yes
AI workload and model posture checks Discovers AI services, models and pipelines in the cloud estate and checks their configuration for risk.	Yes	Yes
Developer-facing fixes in pull requests Surfaces findings and suggested fixes inside the developer's IDE or pull request rather than only in the console.	Yes	No
Modular licensing by capability Modules can be bought separately rather than only as a full-platform bundle.	Yes	No
