Sysdig Secure

Sysdig Secure is part of Sysdig’s container intelligence platform. Sysdig uses a unified platform to deliver security, monitoring, and forensics in a container and microservices-friendly architecture. Sysdig Secure takes a services-aware approach to runtime security and forensics and brings together deep container visibility with Docker and Kubernetes integration to block threats more effectively.

In the background, the Sysdig agent lives on the hosts being monitored and collects the appropriate data and events. For more information, see the Sysdig Agent Documentation.
