#28: Digging Deep with Keegan Riley from Sysdig

Today we are going to talk about two big pandemic concerns, pivots and security, and we have a company taking care of both, Sysdig. Sysdig was founded as an open source troubleshooting tool by Loris Degioanni in 2013. You may know Loris Degioanni as co-creator of the very popular open source network analyzer Wireshark and the container security tool Falco.

While Sysdig began life as a troubleshooting tool, it has evolved into a security tool which has left them well positioned for this pandemic. Security has been a huge challenge as businesses are faced with remote workers and a much more distributed, cloud centric infrastructure. Sysdig is in a position to leverage the tools they built to quickly expand their product to address some big gaps in today’s market.

Today, we are talking with Sysdig CRO, Keegan Riley. Keegan has worked for a who’s who of technology stalwarts from EMC to HPE to Nimble. Sandesh and I are very excited to talk with Keegan and get the story of Sysdig’s journey. Welcome Keegan
