Sysdig Secure is a cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP) for containers, Kubernetes and cloud accounts, built on runtime data and sold by quote.

Sysdig Secure finds and stops attacks in cloud accounts, containers and Kubernetes clusters by watching what actually runs, not only how resources are configured. It is the security product of Sysdig, Inc., an independent company headquartered in Raleigh, North Carolina. Sysdig also sells Sysdig Monitor, a separate monitoring product. Secure brings posture, permissions, vulnerabilities and live threats into one console, so a security team works from one inventory instead of several scanners. Posture and permissions management combines cloud security posture management, cloud infrastructure entitlement management, compliance checks and infrastructure as code security. A graph-based data engine connects cloud services, configurations, identities and runtime activity, and the Cloud Attack Graph turns those links into attack paths. Vulnerability management scans with or without an agent and ranks the packages that are in use. Detection and response runs on Falco, the open source runtime engine. It covers Linux and Windows servers, containers, Kubernetes, AWS Fargate, Google Cloud Run and cloud logs. The GenAI Assistant answers questions in plain language, and an MCP server hands the same runtime context to AI coding agents. The platform suits security teams and platform engineers who run containers and Kubernetes in production and need to know which findings are exploitable now. Organizations that span AWS, Google Cloud and Azure see all three in one place. It also fits companies deploying AI agents and AI workloads, because it discovers sanctioned and shadow AI tools and checks them for exposure and misconfiguration. Teams holding sensitive data in cloud storage can extend it with data findings from Bedrock Data, which classify personal, health and financial records. Developers meet Sysdig Secure in the build, where the sysdig-cli-scanner evaluates each image against policy in the CI/CD pipeline. Registry scanning reaches Amazon ECR, Azure Container Registry, Harbor and Quay before an image ships. When a vulnerable dependency turns up, Sysdig can open a remediation pull request at the source. Analysts triage detections drawn from AWS, Google Cloud, Azure and Okta logs and hand the follow-up work to Jira or Linear. If a container drifts from its baseline, a policy can shut it down before the investigation begins, which keeps the response tied to what is running at that moment.
