In the 2023 Magic Quadrant for Application Performance Monitoring (APM) and Observability, Gartner recognized Dynatrace as a Leader, noting its high performance in Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision, and ranked it top across six use cases, including Security Operations. The convergence of observability and security is emphasized as crucial for enhancing application security, offering a comprehensive view of application environments to improve threat detection, incident response, and security posture. Dynatrace's platform leverages features like Runtime Vulnerability Analytics and AI-assisted prioritization to strengthen DevSecOps processes and increase productivity. The importance of integrating observability and security is underscored by the ongoing threat posed by vulnerabilities such as Log4Shell, with the need for organizations to adopt these solutions to better manage vulnerabilities and protect against cyber threats. The Gartner report highlights that while APM and observability implementations are still developing, they have shown significant value in providing security signals and improving organizational resilience against breaches.
