In this episode, we speak with Gerald Combs, director of open source at Sysdig, and Loris Degioanni, founder and CTO of Sysdig. They both co-created Wireshark and are now releasing a new tool called Stratoshark for inspecting cloud-native environments.

We discuss: 

  • What the technology landscape looked like when they created Wireshark in the 90s
  • Why they created Stratoshark
  • The connection between the two tools
  • The future of Stratoshark

You can learn more about Stratoshark and get a demo of it at SharkFest'25 in Richmond, VA from June 14-19. Register here: https://sharkfest.wireshark.org/sfus/
