Cloud Security Management by Datadog is a comprehensive cloud-native security platform that combines agentless and agent-based technologies to protect cloud environments. The solution operates within Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) environments to logically isolate networks and implements security groups for controlling access. It integrates Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM), Cloud Infrastructure Entitlement Management (CIEM), Vulnerability Management (VM), and Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) scanning capabilities into a unified interface. The platform performs continuous scanning to detect vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, identity risks, and compliance violations while providing real-time threat detection and automated response capabilities. It integrates security with Datadog's broader observability platform to analyze patterns across the entire technology stack.
