Discover sensitive data in your cloud data stores with Sensitive Data Scanner

Datadog has introduced Sensitive Data Scanner (SDS), an agentless tool that scans Amazon S3 buckets and RDS instances for sensitive data, such as credit card numbers and personally identifiable information. SDS automatically pinpoints sensitive data in cloud resources, detects new resources, and flags potential security issues. The tool provides insights into the types of sensitive data found, prioritizes matches based on urgency, and offers remediation options to fix security issues. To access SDS, users must have Sensitive Data Scanner enabled and Amazon S3 buckets or RDS instances in their cloud environment, with optional 14-day free trial for new Datadog accounts.
