Announcing Datadog Security Monitoring

With the growing complexity and velocity of security threats in dynamic, cloud-native environments, it’s more important than ever for security teams to have the same visibility into their infrastructure, network, and applications that developers and operations do. Conversely, as developers and operations become responsible for securing their services, they need their monitoring platform to help surface possible threats.

Now or never: Your last stand against cyber attacks.

The Global Risks Report 2019 states that cyber attacks are one of the top five risks to global stability. In the cyber world, there are just two categories of people: one category who've realized that they've been attacked and the other category who are yet to realize.

Secret Keys to the Password Kingdom

Building trust with customers is a must for MSPs. And because of the unique nature of MSPs, it’s not always easy.

Because it’s so easy. Data breaches happen almost constantly, and credentials get leaked. At the same time, people are prone to reuse the same few passwords across all their accounts.
