Sysdig has announced the launch of Sysdig Secure AI, a new AI-native offering built on the Sysdig Secure CNAPP that helps teams defend at the speed of AI-powered attacks. With frontier AI models uncovering vulnerabilities by the thousands and threat actors breaking into cloud environments in minutes, the solution gives teams three ways to harness machine-speed defense: agentic AI, headless cloud security, and a GenAI assistant.
Sysdig launches Secure AI with agentic AI, headless cloud security, and GenAI assistant options.
The solution helps teams run 10+ times as many investigations at 88% lower cost.
Sysdig TRT documented JADEPUFFER, first ransomware run end-to-end by an AI agent.
Falco open source runtime engine has been downloaded 200M+ times, trusted by 60% of Fortune 500.
Secure AI acts on deep runtime intelligence from Sysdig's CNAPP platform.
83% of organizations are adopting or planning to adopt AI for cybersecurity.
The window for defenders to respond to threats is collapsing. Vulnerabilities are now exploited within hours of advisories going public, and the Sysdig Threat Research Team recently watched an AI agent move from a single vulnerability to an organization's internal database in under one hour. They also exposed JADEPUFFER, the first documented case of ransomware run end to end by an AI agent, showing that attackers have only scratched the surface of what autonomous threats can do. As the window for defenders to respond shrinks toward zero, AI-powered defense is no longer optional, with 83% of organizations either adopting or planning to adopt AI for cybersecurity.
Sysdig Secure AI powers a coordinated team of AI security experts built on deep runtime telemetry and tuned for each domain of cloud defense. Agentic AI builds a prioritized, personalized list of urgent risks and delivers remediations and mitigations. Headless cloud security leverages Sysdig's expertise to accelerate investigations within AI agent workflows like Claude, Cursor, or Codex. The GenAI assistant, formerly Sysdig Sage, is a fully integrated AI cloud security analyst that anyone can ask to explain risk and recommend remediation in plain language. Organizations can use these options in combination, keeping a human in the loop where decisions are critical and working autonomously where speed matters most.
Sysdig sees more of the cloud than anyone, from posture and identity to runtime, drawn from deep telemetry, years of frontline research from the Sysdig TRT, and Falco, its open source runtime threat detection engine. Falco has been downloaded over 200 million times and is trusted by 60% of the Fortune 500. Sysdig Secure AI acts on live, real-world risk, powered by expert-written skills and tuned for each pillar of cloud defense. It hyperpersonalizes to how each organization works, learning what is normal, critical, and which assets matter most. The payoff is measurable: teams can handle more than 10 times as many investigations as human experts alone at 88% lower cost.
"For decades, security tools worked like cameras, recording break-ins for humans to review and act on. But attackers changed the game the moment they picked up AI – by the time you receive an alert, your data's already gone," said Loris Degioanni, Sysdig Founder and CTO. "You need a response, not just a recording. Security teams need an active defense that reacts in real time to what's actually happening in their environments. That's what Sysdig Secure AI delivers, adapting to your business and moving at the speed and shape of the threats it helps defend against."
"Adding headcount fast enough to match the speed of today's threats is a real challenge, so AI-powered security that amplifies the impact of human effort is critical," said Frederic Alex, Senior Security Engineer at a crypto exchange. "Sysdig Secure AI meets teams where they are. Experts set the priorities and AI agents do the heavy lifting using deep runtime data. That helps us close the gap between knowing about risk and resolving it, and it's how we stay ahead of a threat landscape that changes by the hour."
"What sets Sysdig Secure AI apart is that it acts on what is actually running our environment, so we can act on the findings that matter most as they're detected," said Teo Lopez, Manager of Platform Engineering at SonderMind. "As a mental health tech company, keeping clients' personal information secure and protected is a non-negotiable. Sysdig equipped us to bring AI into our security program on our own terms and see real, measurable risk reduction almost instantly. We didn't have to wait until we felt ready to rebuild everything around it."
