Datadog Launches Audit Trail to Help Businesses Achieve Their Compliance and Governance Objectives

June 23, 2022 By admin Leave a Comment

Datadog Audit Trail provides detailed audit event access, alerting and reporting capabilities that are critical for compliance and operational workflow management

NEW YORK , June 23, 2022 – Datadog, Inc. (NASDAQ: DDOG), the monitoring and security platform for cloud applications, today announced the general availability of Datadog Audit Trail, a new service that enables customers to audit all changes within the Datadog platform. Together with Datadog Sensitive Data Scanner and role-based access control (RBAC), Datadog Audit Trail helps businesses build a more complete compliance strategy for their observability data by mitigating the risk of significant data breaches, unauthorized user access and unintended configuration changes.

Regulatory requirements such as FedRAMP, GDPR and HIPAA require businesses to audit their platform activity on an ongoing basis, which can become time consuming and resource intensive. Datadog Audit Trail provides a unified view to give customers full visibility into user and API actions across the platform, allowing teams to report and alert on changes and fulfill their audit and compliance demands quickly and easily.

As organizations continue to increase their investments in cloud migration, automation and CI/CD integrations, it becomes critical to monitor for and respond rapidly to any unintended access, configuration and billing changes in their setup. Audit events—such as changes to monitors, dashboards, or data retention and RBAC policies—are key to diagnosing and mitigating such incidents.

“With Datadog Audit Trail, we were able to quickly find and lock down suspicious activity across certain access keys, helping us ensure sensitive information remained protected across the stack and meet our compliance and security goals,” said Doug Reading, Engineering Manager, Observability at Zendesk.

“It can be a very manual and painful process to dig for the right information in event logs and troubleshoot when some critical Datadog configuration gets changed,” said Pranay Kamat, Group Product Manager at Datadog. “Datadog Audit Trail simplifies this process. Teams can now collaborate on audit requests without leaving the Datadog platform. This reduces the time it takes to build, report and remediate important and time-sensitive events.”

Datadog Audit Trail solves customer pain points by enabling organizations to:

Retain all observability audit events to enable compliance: Enable organizational compliance by keeping all audit events for 90 days, with additional options for long-term archival.
Respond to audit requests easily: Analyze trends and usage details with out-of-the-box dashboards and reporting capabilities.
Monitor critical events: Stay alerted when critical observability configuration changes are made or unusual access activity is detected.
Datadog Audit Trail is generally available today and pricing information can be found here. Learn more about the offering here: https://www.datadoghq.com/product/audit-trail/.
