Security and DevOps engineers often spend a lot of time and effort creating and managing complex, repetitive workflows, such as incident response, honeypotting, recovery and remediation, and more. Blink is a no-code security platform that enables users to create workflow automations, triggers, and self-service apps to streamline processes, better enforce guardrails, and eliminate operational bottlenecks.
In complex cloud environments where the speed of development is accelerated, managing infrastructure and resource configurations can be an overwhelming task—particularly when certifications and compliance frameworks like PCI, HIPAA, and SOC 2 present a lengthy list of requirements. DevOps and engineering teams need to ship code updates at a rapid pace, making it easy for them to accidentally overlook misconfigurations.
Ensuring your threat detection rules work as intended and provide sufficient coverage for major threats is a critical component of a security program. Red Canary’s Atomic Red Team—an open source library of detection tests that help teams validate the effectiveness of their security measures—has historically been the tool of choice for detection testing.
As organizations grow, they naturally need to analyze logs from more data sources. But as these data sources expand in number and type, it becomes more difficult for teams to scale their security detection rules to keep up with the ever-changing threat landscape. Sigma is an open source project that aims to address this challenge. By leveraging the expertise of the open source community, Sigma enables security teams to implement out-of-the-box rules that cover a wide range of threat scenarios.
In order to better meet organizations’ specific requirements for securing their environments, we are making changes to our Cloud Security Management product. On August 1, Datadog introduced new offerings in Cloud Security Management: CSM Pro and CSM Enterprise. Alongside Datadog Cloud Workload Security, these distinct packages provide customers with security capabilities tailored to their particular use cases and needs.
Cloud environments comprise hundreds of thousands of individual components, from infrastructure-level containers and hosts to access-level user and cloud accounts. With this level of complexity, it’s important to establish and maintain end-to-end visibility into your environment for many reasons—not least among them to efficiently identify, prioritize, and mitigate security threats.
