Prioritize vulnerability remediation with Datadog SCA

Apr 19, 2024 By David Lentz In Datadog
Software Composition Analysis (SCA) is the practice of identifying the open source libraries your code depends on. By using SCA, you can analyze these dependencies and determine whether they are affected by any known vulnerabilities, contain malicious code, introduce licensing risk, or are poorly maintained. SCA helps teams understand their software’s dependencies and the security implications of using them so that they can safely build on and innovate with open source code.

Apr 18, 2024 By Kaushik Akula In Datadog
As your business evolves to serve more users, your applications and infrastructure will generate an increasing volume of logs, which may contain sensitive data such as credit card numbers, IP addresses, and tokens. When you collect sensitive data, you may be subject to laws such as GDPR—which restricts the transfer of personal data across borders, and you may face legal consequences if this data is exposed outside your infrastructure.

Security at the Speed of Cloud

Apr 9, 2024 By Datadog In Datadog
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.
