Our take

As the use of containers and Kubernetes applications rise, enterprises implementing cloud apps face new security problems. These problems have created huge demand for security companies like Sysdig, which offers an open-source platform that manages security risks as companies run these modern cloud-based systems.

As well as its competitors, which include Dome9, Datadog, and Orca Security, Sysdig has enjoyed a surge in business, as more companies have had to adopt dynamic digital security solutions to enable remote working. Whilst much of its revenue comes from the US market, in recent years, it has expanded its footprint across the Middle East and Asia.

Having secured unicorn status in 2021, Sysdig remains a big player in the rapidly-growing public cloud market, with a list of impressive enterprise clients using its solutions including IBM, Goldman Sachs, Worldpay, ActiVision, and Booking.com.
