Sysdig Welcomes Gerald and the Wireshark Community

Sysdig has announced that Gerald Combs, the original creator and lead maintainer of Wireshark, has joined the company, and Sysdig will become the primary sponsor of Wireshark. This collaboration marks a reunion for Loris Degioanni, Sysdig's founder, and Combs, who have collaborated since their early days with the Ethereal project, which later became Wireshark. Combs' addition is seen as an opportunity to enhance Wireshark's capabilities for modern cloud environments, particularly as software increasingly operates in the cloud and is orchestrated by Kubernetes. Sysdig plans to invest in expanding Wireshark's features to ensure it remains a vital tool for troubleshooting and security investigations, with a commitment to supporting its developer community and continuing the legacy of Wireshark.
