Secure serverless applications with Datadog ASM

What's this blog post about?

The adoption of serverless architectures is growing as organizations aim to simplify scalability and eliminate the need for managing infrastructure. However, securing serverless applications presents unique challenges due to their distributed nature and numerous ephemeral components. Datadog Application Security Management (ASM) helps improve security posture by detecting threats across AWS Lambda serverless applications. ASM monitors traffic, generates security signals, and provides insights into attacks attempting to exploit vulnerabilities in serverless applications. It also enables users to investigate attacks with distributed traces, respond within existing workflows and tools, and detect vulnerabilities in third-party libraries.
