Datadog Cloud Security Management is a cloud-native security platform that provides comprehensive security monitoring, detection, and protection capabilities across cloud environments. The solution combines agentless scanning technology with an optional lightweight open-source agent to enable security and DevOps teams to detect, prioritize, and respond to threats in real-time. It integrates security workflows including Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM), Kubernetes Security Posture Management (KSPM), Cloud Infrastructure Entitlements Management (CIEM), Vulnerability Management (VM), and Infrastructure as Code (IaC) scanning into a unified platform. The system performs continuous scanning to detect vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, identity risks, and compliance violations across cloud accounts, while embedding observability context into security findings for enhanced investigation and triage capabilities.
