In their talk, Katie Nickels (Sr. Director of Intelligence Operations) and Jesse Griggs (Sr. Threat Researcher) from Red Canary show you how to adapt an endpoint detection mindset to the cloud, specifically focusing on pre-impact TTPs and building robust cloud detections.

Datadog Detect is a virtual mini-conference dedicated to helping security teams modernize detection and response by applying engineering best practices. Hear talks from industry experts, including security researchers and engineers at Datadog, Red Canary, and Corelight to learn about building scalable, effective security operations.

In this talk, Megan Roddie-Fonseca, Sr. Security Engineer at Datadog, addresses the challenge of finding "just right" detections, leveraging data classification techniques like recall and precision to balance false positives and missed attacks. Presented on October 30, 2025 for Datadog Detect.

In this talk, David Burkett, Cloud Security Researcher at Corelight, highlights how timeless evasion tactics create critical blind spots in cloud workloads, and illustrates the role of Network Detection and Response (NDR) as a resilient countermeasure. Presented on October 30, 2025 for Datadog Detect.

Responding to threats often requires time-consuming, multi-step actions across multiple tools, slowing down investigations and increasing risk. Learn how security teams can automate a wide range of workflows, from everyday tasks to complex, multi-step investigations, so they can streamline response and reduce manual effort across tools and environments. In this demo, see how Datadog’s integrated SOAR, powered by Workflow Automation, helps you build, test, and manage automated security playbooks with confidence.
