Sysdig provides visibility across cloud, containers, and hosts from source to run. These include:

-Misconfigurations - Detect misconfigurations from IaC source files to cloud services with a unified policy.
-Runtime security -  Detect anomalous activity across containers, hosts and cloud.
-Software vulnerabilities - Unify vulnerability management across containers and hosts. Better prioritize using runtime context.
-Access risk - Enforce least-privilege access policies - Cloud Infrastructure Entitlements Management (CIEM).   
-Compliance - Use out-of-the-box checks to meet regulatory standards (CIS benchmarks, NIST 800-53, SOC2, PCI-DSS, etc.) for containers and cloud. Enable File Integrity Monitoring (FIM) for containers and hosts.
