Security at the Speed of Cloud

Cloud native technologies have empowered engineering teams to innovate rapidly: from releasing a few times a year to several times a day. This means security assessment have to be done continuously. To achieve this, developer, operation, and security teams have to collaborate in novel ways. Instead of communicating through backlogs, they need to work towards shared objectives. From processes to tooling, teams have to rethink the way they approach security, share context, and improve the security posture of their organization.

Report on changes to your security posture with Cloud Security Management

Achieving and maintaining compliance in the cloud proves challenging for many organizations, as it is a complex, ongoing effort that includes safeguarding sensitive data and ensuring infrastructure resources are correctly configured. Success often hinges on the ability to monitor compliance-related trends over time, enabling organizations to spot risk patterns, gauge their current compliance posture, and adapt as new risks emerge. However, gathering this data can be difficult.

Secure your Windows workloads with Datadog Cloud Security Management

As Windows organizations migrate toward cloud-based environments, they often lose context of their full stack. In addition to securing their on-premises servers, they now need to deal with virtual servers, managed services, and platform-as-a-service offerings. Cloud-based resources require organizations to relinquish control over physical infrastructure and limit their access to underlying operating systems.

Mitigate the primary risks to API security

APIs are foundational to modular application development. They support an organization’s internal services as well as provide a mechanism for customers to access certain services or datasets for their own applications. Because of the role that both internal and public-facing APIs play in applications, they are considered one of the top targets for threat actors.

Datadog Security extends compliance and threat protection capabilities for Google Cloud

Organizations are adopting Google Cloud at a growing rate. This growth is partially influenced by both the rise of AI computing and a push towards multi-cloud usage. A recent report found that 85 percent of organizations deploy their applications on multi-cloud architecture. With the shift to AI computing and multi-cloud adoption, organizations are reconsidering their cloud security coverage now more than ever.

Detect malware in your containers with Datadog Cloud Security Management

Detecting malware in container environments can be a major challenge due to the rapid development of malicious code, the proliferation of insecure container images, and the multilayered complexity of container stacks. Staying ahead of attackers means tracking the constant evolution of malware and rooting out threats in your codebase at the expense of considerable compute.

Detect and stop unauthorized cryptomining in your cloud workloads with Datadog CSM Threats

Cloud environments are susceptible to a wide variety of cyberattacks, making them difficult to secure. Some cyberattacks are easier to detect than others, so a priority in cloud security is having adequate detection and response systems in place to mitigate them. Unauthorized cryptomining has become a prevalent threat in recent years, especially in cloud environments where it can be harder to detect.
