As data growth continues to accelerate, the importance of implementing data privacy by design becomes increasingly critical for organizations. This approach involves integrating security considerations into cloud systems from the outset, rather than as an afterthought, and includes practices such as continuous security testing and fostering a mature DevSecOps culture. The challenge is heightened by the emergence of widespread vulnerabilities like Log4Shell, which affected millions of applications and devices, underscoring the need for greater transparency and visibility in multi- and hybrid cloud environments. During a discussion at Perform 2023, Dynatrace product managers highlighted the role of their platform in enhancing data security and privacy through measures such as data exclusion at multiple points, encryption, tenant-specific security functions, and comprehensive API access management. By employing a Secure Software Development Lifecycle, Dynatrace ensures rigorous security assessments and compliance with standards like SOC 2 Type 2 and GDPR, offering a robust framework for organizations looking to strengthen their data security posture.
