Datadog Cloud Security Platform Advances DevSecOps

Home » Blogs » Datadog Cloud Security Platform Advances DevSecOps

Datadog has launched a Datadog Cloud Security Platform that promises to advance DevSecOps by identifying potential threats using the same agent software many DevOps teams already rely on to instrument applications.

Boutet noted that many DevOps teams are reluctant to roll out security platforms that require them to deploy, manage and update an additional set of agents across their application environment.

In some cases, the dashboards surfaced by Datadog will be employed by DevOps teams that have assumed responsibility for cybersecurity as part of an effort to shift more responsibility for application security further left, noted Boutet.

Many organizations are wondering if they should slow down the pace of application development to ensure better security and to what degree.
