Sysdig Eyes $1 Billion ARR, India Represents One-Third of its APJ Business
You're reading Entrepreneur India, an international franchise of Entrepreneur Media. US-based cloud security company Sysdig plans to clock USD 1 billion annual recurring revenue (ARR) in the next 3-5 years, the company's top management said at a recent media interaction in Bengaluru. While the company does not break down country-specific revenue figures, India plays a strategic role in its growth across the region. "Traditionally, international contributions fall along a 50-40-10 split between the US, EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa), and APJ (Asia Pacific and Japan). But APJ has consistently outperformed that baseline, and India is a major driver of that momentum. In fact, India represents roughly one-third of our APJ business and continues to punch well above its weight," Shantanu Gattani, SVP of Product Management and Infrastructure at Sysdig told Entrepreneur India. Sysdig believes it has taken a unique approach to cloud security. "While the early adoption of cloud security focussed on cloud security posture management, it's become clear to users, analysts, and the industry as a whole that you need end-to-end security, meaning from prevention through threat detection and response. As the leader in runtime cloud security, we use the unique insight into what is running in production to help security teams make better prioritized decisions across the software lifecycle," Gattani said. For Sysdig in India, banking, financial services, and insurance (BFSI) is a major focus vertical as they modernize legacy systems and move critical applications to the cloud. "We are also seeing strong momentum across government, telcos, and high-growth digital-native businesses. These are sectors where downtime is unacceptable, data sensitivity is high, and cloud-native adoption is accelerating," said Gattani. Growth Drivers in India Sysdig believes India's growth is driven by the ongoing cloud-first transformation. "From digital-native startups to traditional enterprises, everyone is racing to modernise. The acceleration, however, creates both opportunity and risk. And as organisations adopt cloud architectures – whether that's fully in public cloud, private, or hybrid – the complexity of securing these environments increases dramatically," said Gattani. "DevSecOps is also gaining serious traction. Whether organisations are doing development in-house or via third-party vendors, we enable them to shift security left and make better-informed decisions earlier in the process. Combine that with India's surging cloud growth and regulatory modernisation, and it's clear why Sysdig has invested in India," he added. For Sysdig, India is on track with its broader APJ growth ambitions, which follow a "Double—Double" model: doubling the business every two years. "What's exciting is that we are seeing real traction here, not just in numbers, but in depth – more enterprise customers, more mission-critical workloads, and more strategic partnerships. With the investments we have already made – including a local cloud instance for data residency and compliance and continued focus across the board, we have high hopes that our growth in India will continue to outpace our projections," said Gattani. In India, Sysdig has been focused on supporting both mid-sized and large enterprises undergoing cloud transformation or managing hybrid environments. These organizations face the toughest challenges: complex infrastructures, heightened regulatory demands, and the need to secure innovation without slowing it down. "With that said, we are also supporting fast-growth companies and digital-native SMBs who want to get cloud security right from the start. Whether they use our open source tools – like Falco or Stratoshark – or adopt our enterprise platform as they scale, we are ready to grow with them. Ultimately, Sysdig is built to be flexible. From SaaS to on-prem deployments, we meet our customers wherever they are in their cloud journeys," said Gattani.

Sysdig Launches Open Source Community to Unite and Empower Millions of Cloud Security Innovators and Builders of All Levels
SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sysdig, the leader in real-time cloud security, today announced the Sysdig Open Source Community, a new global hub connecting users of its open source tools, including Falco, Wireshark, Stratoshark, and sysdig OSS. The community, designed to unify and support the worldwide ecosystem of security professionals, developers, engineers, analysts, and students, will go beyond technical collaboration. It will also offer professional development opportunities, including certification programs, job and freelance boards, mentorship pairing, and a dedicated student support center. @Sysdig launches Open Source Community to unite and empower millions of cloud security innovators and builders of all levels. Learn more: Share 'To me, the Sysdig Open Source Community creates a vital feedback loop – a place where I can see how others are adapting to new threats, learn about new tools, and share best practices with professionals across the globe,' said Edgaras Apšega, Site Reliability Engineer at Vinted and Falco user. 'Falco has given me the flexibility to tailor threat detection to my organization's needs, but staying ahead means constantly evolving.' With the Sysdig Open Source Community, the company continues to invest in its commitment to open source by building a global space for users to exchange ideas and expand their skill sets. The need for a unified community was made clear by the January 2025 launch of Stratoshark. Stratoshark, which extends Wireshark's deep network visibility to the cloud by leveraging Falco's ecosystem, began as the technical convergence of the two widely adopted tools. Wireshark has more than 5 million daily users with deep expertise in network analysis and troubleshooting, while Falco has over 4 million users and 1,000 contributors skilled in advanced cloud threat detection. The Sysdig Open Source Community breaks down existing siloes between users across the Sysdig open source software (OSS) ecosystem and connects security professionals in a central global hub. 'The future of security is built on open source, and I believe that as much today as I did more than 20 years ago when Wireshark was born,' said Loris Degioanni, Falco creator and Sysdig Founder and CTO. 'Threat actors are working together – sharing tactics, scripts, and now AI techniques. Instead of fighting an asymmetrical battle, security professionals must do the same. Not only does the Sysdig Open Source Community create a space for them to collaborate and help shape the tools they use, but it delivers an open forum to share what they're seeing on the front lines and form a stronger, more collective defense.' Built in the Open, Shaped by the Community The open source security landscape is evolving rapidly. With growing complexity around cloud environments and a new wave of professionals entering the field, the need for a more connected, resource-rich space has never been greater. The Sysdig Open Source Community delivers a dedicated home for user collaboration across: Wireshark, the world's leading network protocol analyzer, launched in 1998 and downloaded over 160 million times in the last decade alone. sysdig OSS, the foundation of open source system visibility, launched in 2014 for cloud-native forensics and incident response. Falco, the open source standard for threat detection and Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF)-graduated project, launched in 2016 and used by 60% of the Fortune 500. Stratoshark, the open source cloud forensics tool described as 'Wireshark for the cloud,' launched in early 2025 and downloaded more than 40,000 times. In addition to the established user base across the Sysdig OSS ecosystem, the community will be upheld by maintainers of the projects, and Sysdig threat researchers, engineers, and support professionals. While there are many disparate channels for users to ask questions today, the Sysdig Open Source Community is designed to bring those conversations together – fostering deeper collaboration, knowledge sharing, and a stronger sense of connection. Community members will be able to: Collaborate in forums for users of all four technologies, creating an easily searchable record of resources like questions, answers, and best practices. Engage in certification programs that validate their security skills. Peruse job and freelance boards that connect them with career opportunities. Participate in mentorship pairing designed to support both new and experienced professionals. Explore a student support center full of resources to help new technologists break into the industry, or simply work through a problem or project. 'Open source isn't just about lines of code. It's about people, and it's about raising the security standard,' said Gerald Combs, Wireshark creator and Sysdig Director of Open Source Projects. 'There are people who have used tools like Wireshark and Falco throughout their career, and this community gives them a place to learn, innovate, and raise the bar. From helping longtime Wireshark users transfer their expertise directly into the cloud, to helping new users learn the basics of OSS security, there is something for everyone in the Sysdig Open Source Community.'
