Recommended Actions

  1. Obtain Datadog's current SOC 2 Type II report (dated within the last 12 months) — request it directly through [trust.datadoghq.com](https://trust.datadoghq.com) or by emailing security@datadoghq.com. If the report period ended more than 6 months ago, also request a bridge letter confirming no material changes to controls. Retain both documents alongside this report as SOC 2 CC9.2 audit evidence.
  2. Request ISO 27001 and PCI DSS documentary evidence — ask Datadog's security team for the ISO 27001 certificate (showing issuing body, certificate number, scope, and expiry) and the PCI DSS Attestation of Compliance. These are standard requests that Datadog's trust center is designed to fulfill via [trust.datadoghq.com](https://trust.datadoghq.com).
  3. Follow up on the March 2026 GitHub Actions exploitation campaign — request a formal vendor statement via your account team or security contact confirming whether Datadog's production infrastructure was affected by the Hackerbot-Claw campaign, what remediation was taken, and whether any customer data was at risk. Document the response in your incident tracking system.

Can I get an auto-filled security questionnaire for Datadog?+

The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Datadog a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Datadog safe to use as a vendor?+
Datadog is a observability vendor that handles application logs, traces, and metrics. Safety depends on their current security posture, certification status, and how they handle your specific data. ThirdProof automates this evaluation across 27 intelligence sources — sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), business registration verification, adverse media scanning, and cyber risk assessment — producing a deterministic risk tier with confidence score plus an auto-filled security questionnaire. Run a free investigation to see Datadog's full risk profile.
Does Datadog have SOC 2 certification?+
Yes — Datadog holds SOC 2 + 4 other certs. Rated Low Risk — threat intel signals found. See all 3 findings →
Has Datadog had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly observability platforms like Datadog that handle application logs, traces, and metrics. ThirdProof's adverse media analysis searches multiple news APIs and public records for data breaches, security incidents, lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and financial distress signals. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification.
Is Datadog on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for observability vendors. ThirdProof screens Datadog against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Datadog or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Datadog for vendor risk?+
Assessing Datadog as a observability vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II and FedRAMP compliance, reviewing their subprocessor chain, and checking sanctions exposure. ThirdProof automates this across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — no questionnaires or vendor participation required. Your first 5 investigations are free.
How long does a ThirdProof assessment take?+
A ThirdProof assessment completes in an average of 7 minutes. 27 intelligence sources are queried in parallel — sanctions databases, business registries, threat intelligence feeds, certificate transparency logs, and more. The result is a deterministic risk tier with confidence score and audit-ready PDF report.
Is ThirdProof free?+
ThirdProof offers 5 free vendor assessments with no credit card required. Each assessment includes the full report — risk tier, confidence score, individual findings, executive summary, and PDF export. Paid plans start at $399/month for teams that need ongoing vendor monitoring.
Can I use a ThirdProof report as SOC 2 audit evidence?+
Yes. ThirdProof reports are designed to satisfy SOC 2 CC9.2 (vendor risk management) requirements. Each report includes SHA-256 integrity verification, methodology disclosure, source attribution for every finding, and AI content labeling. Auditors can independently verify the report's authenticity and trace each finding to its original source.
How is ThirdProof different from a security questionnaire?+
Security questionnaires require vendor participation, take weeks, and produce self-reported answers. ThirdProof queries 27 independent intelligence sources — no vendor involvement needed. Risk tiers are assigned by a deterministic rules engine (not AI opinion), and every finding links to its original source. You get an audit-ready report in an average of 7 minutes instead of waiting weeks for a questionnaire response.

Datadog is in your vendor stack. Can you prove you assessed them?

SOC 2 CC9.2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC all require documented vendor due diligence — not just knowing the answer, but having audit-ready evidence you verified it. Most compliance teams can't produce that documentation on demand.

ThirdProof investigates Datadog across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — sanctions screening, cyber posture, SOC 2 verification, FedRAMP status, and more. Every investigation produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and an auto-filled security questionnaire your prospects and auditors expect to see.
