Learn how you can use your observability and monitoring to protect your organization from data breaches. In this workshop, we will dive into a few famous data breaches, and show you how you, as a non-security engineer, can use a new open source project called Approzium. We’ll walk through migrating credentials out of your application and removing the application's direct access to those credentials. We’ll then show the advanced logging and tracing while using Approzium, allowing for better observability including being able to pinpoint exactly which of your individual services are connecting to your databases. From there we’ll push all of those logs to Datadogs for further analysis and consolidation of logging across your full stack. You will then be set up to track all sensitive data activity, and be able to pinpoint any exfiltration activity.
