Fairwinds Insights is Kubernetes governance and security software that enables DevOps teams to monitor and prevent configuration problems in their infrastructure and applications. Not only does Fairwinds simplify Kubernetes complexity, but it also reduces risk by surfacing security and reliability issues in your Kubernetes clusters.
On December 9, 2021, a critical vulnerability in the popular Log4j Java logging library was disclosed and nicknamed Log4Shell. The vulnerability is tracked as CVE-2021-44228 and is a remote code execution vulnerability that can give an attacker full control of any impacted system. In this blog post, we will: We will also look at how to leverage Datadog to protect your infrastructure and applications.
Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) is a collection of cloud-based productivity and collaboration tools developed by Google. Today, millions of teams use Google Workspace (e.g., Gmail, Drive, Hangouts) to streamline their workflows. Monitoring Google Workspace activity is an essential part of security monitoring and audits, especially if these applications have become tightly integrated with your organization’s data.
Session Replay enables you to replay in a video-like format how users interact with your website to help you understand behavioral patterns and save time troubleshooting. Visibility into user sessions, however, can risk exposing sensitive data and raise privacy concerns. For example, a user session may include typing in a credit card or social security number into an input field.
Azure Government is a dedicated cloud for public sector organizations that want to leverage Azure’s suite of services in their highly regulated environments. As these organizations migrate their applications to Azure Government, they need to ensure that they can maintain visibility into the status and health of their entire infrastructure.
Within distributed applications, data moves across many loosely connected endpoints, microservices, and teams, making it difficult to know when services are storing—or inadvertently leaking—sensitive data. This is especially true for governance, risk management, and compliance (GRC) or other security teams working for enterprises in highly regulated industries, such as healthcare, banking, insurance, and financial services.
Almost all tasks within a Linux system, whether it’s an application, system daemon, or certain types of user activity, are executed by one or more processes . This means that monitoring processes is key to detecting potentially malicious activity in your systems, such as the creation of unexpected web shells or other utilities.
Securing your environment requires being able to quickly detect abnormal activity that could represent a threat. But today’s modern cloud infrastructure is large, complex, and can generate vast volumes of logs. This makes it difficult to determine what activity is normal and harder to identify anomalous behavior. Now, in addition to threshold and new term –based Threat Detection Rules , Datadog Security Monitoring provides the ability to create anomaly
