Sysdig AI Defense is generally available, monitoring agent actions and allowing, holding, or blocking them before completion.

Sysdig has made Sysdig AI Defense generally available to govern agentic AI at runtime. It monitors every agent action from origin to completion on endpoints and in cloud environments at the kernel level, and can allow, hold for human review, or block risky actions before they finish. Agents can be traced to an accountable human, with a live inventory of agents and models and immutable audit logs the agent cannot change. Policies start in alert mode and can later move to enforcement, including templates mapped to frameworks such as the OWASP Top 10 for LLM Applications. Sysdig says coverage includes Claude Code, Codex, GitHub Copilot, and Cursor, and that the product complements existing endpoint and red-team tools.
