Tools for HashiCorp Vault monitoring

In Part 1, we looked at the key metrics for monitoring the health and performance of your HashiCorp Vault deployment. We also discussed how Vault server and audit logs can give you additional context for troubleshooting issues ranging from losses in availability to policy misconfiguration. Now, we’ll show you how to access this data with tools that ship with Vault.

Debug Android crashes faster with Datadog

Technical issues, such as fatal crashes, are one of the biggest reasons why users uninstall mobile applications, so quickly identifying and resolving issues is vital for user retention. This can be challenging, particularly in the Android market, which has a wide variety of mobile devices and versions of the Android operating system. You need visibility into every issue so you can determine which crashes impact your application the most and efficiently resolve them.

Detect anomalous activity in your environment with new term-based Detection Rules

When it comes to securing your production environment, it’s essential that your security teams are able to detect any suspicious activity before it becomes a more serious threat. While detecting clear-cut attacker techniques is essential, being able to spot unknowns is vital for full security coverage.

Datadog receives a "Leader" distinction in Gartner's 2021 Magic Quadrant for APM

This week, Gartner published the 2021 Magic Quadrant for Application Performance Monitoring, which positions vendors according to their ability to execute and the completeness of their vision. This year, Datadog placed higher and further in both categories to move from our previous “Visionary” distinction, which we received the first time we were included on the Quadrant, into the “Leader” quadrant.

Datadog On Agent Integration Development

To make sure that customers are getting the most out of the platform in the least amount of time, Datadog maintains more than 400 built-in integrations. These integrations collect metrics, events, and logs from a diverse set of sources: databases, source control, bug tracking tools, cloud providers, automation tools, and more. How do we make sure that all those integrations are properly tested, updated for new features, and delivered to millions of hosts?

Bits of Security, Security Panel

Have a question you’ve been wanting to ask about security at scale, supply chain, or managing great security teams? Join our speakers, industry experts, and Datadog’s very own CISO for an AMA on the “Art of Defense.” We’ll explore all of the topics from the conference speaking sessions and open the door to questions on what we may see from attack and defense in 2021 and beyond.

Bits of Security

The past year introduced a plethora of challenges for security practitioners. While the range of cyber attacks has been vast, these attacks have been confronted with creative defense tactics and techniques. Join Datadog for a practitioner-focused event where we will examine the “Art of Defense,” which will include a range of topics from social problems to engineering challenges around supply chain attacks.

Bits of Security, Snyk.io: Stranger Danger: Finding Security Vulnerabilities Before They Find You!

Open source modules on the NPM ecosystem are undoubtedly awesome. However, they also represent an undeniable and massive risk, since you’re introducing someone else’s code into your system, often with little or no scrutiny. The wrong package can introduce critical vulnerabilities into your application, exposing your application and your user's data. This talk will use a sample application, Goof, which uses various vulnerable dependencies, which we will exploit as an attacker would. For each issue, we'll explain why it happened, show its impact, and—most importantly—learn how to avoid or fix it.

Bits of Security, PedidosYa: Fraud Detection using Datadog and Sherlock

From day one, most organizations,especially the big ones, are targeted with a broad range of attacks. These range from information exfiltration attempts to fraud. Although a great majority of them can be addressed with the help of a Web Application Firewall, there are some that require more extensive tooling. Join me as I show you how we use Sherlock and Datadog to block 30,000+ fraudulent users per week in seconds. We will also discuss other applications and how you can implement similar solutions.

Datadog acquires Sqreen to strengthen application security

We began our security journey last year with the release of Datadog Security Monitoring, which provides runtime security visibility and detection capabilities for your environment. Today, we are thrilled to announce that Sqreen, an application security platform, is joining the Datadog team. Together, these products further integrate the work of security, development, and ops teams—and provide a robust, full-stack security monitoring solution for the cloud age.
