Datadog | November 30, 2022
Datadog, Inc., the monitoring and security platform for cloud applications, today announced a new integration with Amazon Security Lake. The integration, announced during AWS re:Invent, makes it easy for Amazon Security Lake users to send cloud security logs to Datadog in a standard format.
Building data pipelines in order to aggregate and route security logs to various security analytics solutions can be a cumbersome and time-consuming process. For Amazon Security Lake customers, Datadog's integration provides an easy way to send security logs to Datadog with minimal configuration required.
Once security logs are ingested into Datadog, customers can analyze and identify threats through out-of-the-box detection rules or by writing custom security rules. They can also do deeper investigations using Datadog's log management tools.
"Amazon Security Lake makes it easier for teams to manage their cloud security data and analyze it with partner solutions of their choice," said Rod Wallace, General Manager for Amazon Security Lake. "Datadog's integration with Amazon Security Lake will allow customers to collect their security logs to improve their cybersecurity posture and send them to Datadog for analysis leveraging an open source schema."
"Security threat detection and investigation is dependent on an effective logging strategy that ensures critical logs are being properly analyzed. However, managing dozens of log integrations from cloud-hosted accounts and entities can be cumbersome and lead to gaps in visibility. "Amazon Security Lake and Datadog are working together to provide an easy way to set up and manage important log integrations for Datadog Cloud SIEM, giving customers deep visibility into their most critical infrastructure."

Cloudflare | January 12, 2023
On 11 Jan 2023, Cloudflare, Inc., a leading cybersecurity solutions provider focused on building a better internet, announced multiple new Zero Trust email security tools, compatible with any email provider. The solution prevents sensitive data exfiltration via email, guard employees against multichannel phishing attacks, and help businesses simplify and accelerate deployments. Cloudflare offers organizations simple and reliable phishing and malware protection that is deeply incorporated with its Zero Trust platform, helping organizations secure all their data and applications.
“You can’t have a complete Zero Trust solution without securing email, given that a huge proportion of all cyberattacks begin with phishing,” stated the Co-Founder and CEO of Cloudflare, Matthew Prince. “In 2022, Cloudflare Area 1 identified and kept almost 2.3 billion unwanted messages out of customer inboxes. Today we’re filling a void in the marketplace that has been underinvested in for the last ten years, with the first set of deeply integrated solutions that bring together Cloudflare Area 1 email security and our Zero Trust platform,” he added.

Email is one of the most pervasive and exploited tools used by businesses daily. According to the FBI’s most recent Internet Crime Report, email account compromise and business email compromise led to U.S. companies losing nearly US$ 2.4 billion. In addition, email is one of the most complex tools for businesses to secure, involving a massive drain on IT team resources, multiple vendors, and complex deployments.
Cloudflare’s Zero Trust SASE platform will allow customers to deploy email security and data protection tools that are comprehensively linked with their current security stack and compatible with any email service provider. Cloudflare One offers a comprehensive Zero Trust SASE platform that is built into Cloudflare’s global network, which spans over 275 cities in over 100 countries. This deeply embedded approach makes it easy to set up in just a few clicks without switching email providers.
With Cloudflare Area 1’s new solutions, companies can automatically isolate questionable email attachments and links, identify and prevent data leaks, and rapidly onboard new Microsoft 365 domains.

Telos Corporation | January 09, 2023
SteelCloud LLC, a leading CIS and STIG compliance automation software developer and Telos Corporation, a renowned provider of cyber, enterprise, and cloud security solutions to the world's most security-conscious organizations, recently announced entering into a partnership to assist customers in reducing the complexity of NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) compliance. Customers gain access to all seven RMF phases via a unified, automated solution.
SteelCloud's ConfigOS capabilities take care of the identify/ categorize, select, and implement components of RMF for technical assets. ConfigOS examines an asset, determining whether Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIG) apply, scanning against the STIG standards, identifying compliance indicators, and automating the remediation of findings. Meanwhile, Xacta incorporates and uses this information during the RMF's assessment and authorization processes, as well as when the monitor step is initiated once authorization to operate (ATO) is obtained.
Working together, ConfigOS and Xacta drive decisions to address identification and selection problems while reporting important indicator metrics required to achieve and sustain ATO. STIG and vulnerability data from ConfigOS are integrated into Xacta and mapped to appropriate requirements as part of Assessment and Authorization (A&A), providing customers with a streamlined approach to gaining necessary permissions. Xacta's workflow automation streamlines the whole NIST RMF workflow, managing validation, analysis, documentation, and accreditation processes from start to end.
