What's new in Sysdig – September 2021

In September 2021, Sysdig introduced several updates focused on enhancing compliance and security standards for cloud and container environments. Notably, the Sysdig Secure platform expanded its compliance coverage by integrating new and updated standards, including PCI DSS v3.2.1, AWS Well Architected Framework, AWS Foundational Security Best Practices v1, and NIST 800-171 rev2, aimed at improving security and operational practices. Users can now onboard Sysdig Secure for cloud using Terraform, and new features such as additional vulnerability metadata in scheduled scanning reports were added. The Sysdig Agent received a hotfix release, addressing defects and enhancing functionality, while updates to the Falco Rules introduced new security rules and updated macros. Sysdig also launched new integrations, including event forwarding to Google Cloud's Chronicle, and highlighted the importance of community engagement through events like Kubernetes Community Days. The update emphasizes Sysdig's commitment to providing robust security solutions and compliance tools for cloud-native environments.
