Instead of Sysdig Secure
Sysdig Secure alternatives
Sysdig Secure protects cloud-native applications across cloud, containers, Kubernetes, hosts, and serverless. It uses runtime insights to prioritize exploitable risks, and detects threats in real time with Falco rules, machine learning, and drift control. Its vulnerability scanning can be agent-based or agentless, while Cloud Attack Graph maps links among vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and excessive permissions. It also offers image and registry scanning, runtime protection, SBOM generation, admission control, and an AI assistant for security search and response. AWS, GCP, and Azure accounts are supported, as are on-premises, air-gapped, and private cloud environments.

A different tool may suit you better if you want a free plan, a focused cloud-posture workflow, or a distinct approach to remediation and compliance. Sysdig pricing is by quote, with licensing based on hosts or CSPM compute instances. Its documented agent supports Linux distributions and Windows Server 2019 and later, while its vulnerability CLI scanner is for Linux and macOS. Compare coverage, agent requirements, runtime protection, remediation controls, compliance needs, integrations, deployment, and platform support before switching.
