The Urgent Need for Real-time Cloud Detection & Response

Cloud security has increasingly shifted towards real-time detection and response as traditional posture-based solutions prove inadequate for modern cloud threats. Sysdig, known for developing the open-source Falco standard, highlights the urgency of integrating detection and response with posture management to combat sophisticated cloud attacks effectively. Recent discoveries by Sysdig's Threat Research Team reveal that cyberattacks can occur rapidly, necessitating benchmarks such as their 5/5/5 Benchmark for Cloud Security. The cloud security landscape is evolving, with companies like Wiz acquiring Gem Security to enhance their detection capabilities. The need for comprehensive strategies that incorporate both agentless and agent-based telemetry, real-time data correlation, and runtime insights has become paramount. Sysdig emphasizes its commitment to providing a runtime-powered CNAPP solution, enabling enterprises to innovate securely in the cloud by offering integrated, real-time threat detection and response capabilities.
