Datadog acquires Sqreen to strengthen application security

Datadog has announced the acquisition of Sqreen, an application security platform, to enhance its Cloud SIEM offering and provide a comprehensive security solution for modern DevSecOps practices. Sqreen's Runtime Application Self-Protection (RASP) and In-App Web Application Firewall (WAF) protect distributed applications against sophisticated attacks that target application logic. The integration of Sqreen's technology with Datadog's observability capabilities will enable customers to have a unified monitoring and security platform, leading to fewer agent deployments, simpler configurations, and better collaboration among development, security, and ops teams.
