Monitor AWS IAM Access Analyzer findings with Datadog

What's this blog post about?

Datadog integrates with AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) Access Analyzer to provide visibility into the security of IAM resources alongside other AWS resources within a single pane of glass. The integration enables administrators and security teams to identify unused permissions, passwords, IAM users and roles, and access keys. With Datadog's IAM Access Analyzer integration, users can easily discover and review any unused access granted to IAM resources. AWS IAM Access Analyzer uses automated reasoning to analyze resource policies and detect unintended access to supported AWS resources. The integration with Datadog allows users to monitor the security of their infrastructure and keep tabs on the state of their resource policies, getting alerted about critical issues or misconfigurations.
