Customer-facing applications request and process many types of sensitive data, such as API keys, credit card numbers, and email addresses. As your application scales in size and complexity, it becomes harder to keep track of this sensitive data moving across more services, increasing the risk of data leaks.
For any organization that stores, processes, or transmits cardholder data, monitoring can pose a particular set of challenges. The Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS) dictates rigorous monitoring and data security requirements for the cardholder data environments (CDEs) of all merchants, service providers, and financial institutions.
To optimize its cloud investments, your organization needs internal stakeholders to act on shared knowledge about its cloud costs and cloud usage. But in practice, it’s difficult for organizations to gain a high degree of clarity about their cloud spending. The factors contributing to cost data are not normally visible to all stakeholders, and it’s often impossible to attribute costs to the teams, services, and applications that incurred them.
Today at Dash 2022, we announced new products and features that enable your teams to break down information silos, shift testing to the left, monitor cloud and application security, and more. Now, you can analyze cloud cost data alongside other telemetry, create synthetic tests for your mobile applications, and prevent malicious activity in your environment by blocking IPs directly from Datadog. We expanded Sensitive Data Scanner to include APM, RUM, and Events stream data.

Companies, like most things, rarely grow in a straight line. Plants will take root where they can, and send shoots where they can to get the most sunlight, even if there are obstacles in the way. But vines and branches aren’t known for their efficient pathing, which can make a tangled mess of the whole plant. So get a good sun hat and some pruning shears ready; you’ll need them today! The difference between organic and structured growth is one of purpose and planning.
Financial companies have lots of assets that are valuable and these assets such as laptops, mobiles etc. contain crucial information that is crucial for business continuity and for maintaining SLAs and TATs. Not too surprisingly, even financial sector entities such as banking institutions, lending services, brokerage firms face several issues due to mismanagement of assets. As a result, they suffer from asset misplacement, asset theft, decreased productivity, and unknown asset movement.
