About
The vendor introduces Sysdig Secure AI as a real-time AI cloud defense solution that uses runtime intelligence. It is delivered in existing tools or as AI agents. Expert AI agents, built on runtime intelligence, investigate, prioritize, and act on threats as they emerge. The page states that teams set priorities, and AI handles the work. Sysdig Secure AI aims to enable cloud defense to move at machine speed, detecting and responding to exploits in the moment. The vendor highlights that its AI security tools are built on runtime, which it describes as the deepest context in the cloud. This foundation allows the AI to understand what is actually exploitable versus theoretical risk by capturing live system calls at the kernel level. Sysdig's Threat Research Team's expertise is packaged as expert-written skills for AI agents. The system learns the environment, understands priorities, and works within existing team tools. Sysdig Secure AI extends the Sysdig Secure platform, a cloud-native application protection platform (CNAPP), unifying prevention, detection, and response across containers, Kubernetes, identities, workloads, and cloud services. It offers options for AI to run within existing agents, handle tasks autonomously, or provide contextual answers and guidance through a GenAI Assistant.
