Summary

DevOps and security engineers in highly regulated industries use compliance standards to quickly identify issues in their cloud environments. Datadog Cloud Security Management provides over 250 out-of-the-box rules that align with industry-standard frameworks like SOC 2, PCI-DSS, and ISO. Users can modify existing rules or create new ones tailored to their organization's needs. The platform supports writing detection rules using Rego, a query language for policy-as-code workflows. It also allows testing of rules before publishing and customizing detection alerts with severity levels and automatic notifications via popular communication channels like Slack and Jira.
