Summary

Web application security has been stagnant for over a decade, with traditional development processes and tools no longer meeting the changing needs of modern applications. The integration of Datadog and Signal Sciences brings an intelligent alerting engine for web application security into common practice, providing visibility, blocking, and remediation capabilities to organizations. This collaboration enables the correlation of multiple data sources, improving security-data analytics and alerting, and allowing organizations to make informed decisions with measurable data. Effective security relies on data measurement, and joint customers such as AirBnB, Under Armour, Vimeo, Etsy, Taser, and others have seen significant improvements in their security levels while informing and improving their overall security processes.
