Datadog, Inc. announced the launch of the Datadog Cloud Security Platform, adding full-stack security context to Datadog's deep observability capabilities. This new offering enables organizations to use a single platform to correlate security insights with monitoring data across infrastructure, network and application tiers, providing Security teams with the visibility they need to understand and respond to potential threats faster. In recent years, security attacks have increasingly focused on the application level, prompting DevOps and Security teams to work more closely together to "shift left" and infuse security into the full software development life cycle. Traditionally, this has been difficult because of siloed tools and processes, which has been further exacerbated as organizations move to the cloud and security teams are left with even less visibility. Datadog's Cloud Security Platform addresses these challenges by enabling DevOps and Security teams to access a shared source of truth supported by a common data model. With Datadog, in parallel to detecting potential threats, Security leaders now have access to the underlying infrastructure, network and application data at the time of an attack, meaning they have deeper insights that enable more accurate threat detection and accelerated incident response. And, unlike point solutions, Datadog's platform approach ensures that this data is automatically correlated and presented in context, without requiring manual analysis.
Datadog, Inc. specializes in the development and operation of an IT infrastructure and application monitoring and analysis platform dedicated to developers, IT operations teams and business users in the fields of digital transformation and cloud migration. The group's SaaS-operated platform integrates and automates IT infrastructure monitoring, network performance monitoring, network devices, databases and applications, log management and data analysis, enabling unified and real-time observation of its customers' entire technology stack.
At the end of 2023, Datadog, Inc. had approximately 27,300 users.
North America accounts for 69.9% of net sales.
