Case Study: Glovo builds an enterprise-wide security culture and boosts cloud security posture with Datadog

Glovo builds an enterprise-wide culture of security with Datadog Cloud Security Management

Glovo, the on-demand delivery platform used by millions across 1,500 cities, needed to scale security as its AWS cloud footprint and engineering teams grew. With limited security resources and multiple disconnected tools, engineers spent time hunting through different systems to investigate incidents, creating friction for autonomous teams moving at speed.

Glovo adopted Datadog Cloud Security Management, which plugged into existing observability pipelines and SRE workflows to provide unified, real-time security and observability in one place (including AWS CloudTrail integration). The platform’s frictionless activation, out-of-the-box and customizable detections, and single-agent data integration helped Glovo build a DevSecOps culture and accelerate investigations—raising deployed-resource policy adherence from 70% to 99% and improving security posture by 30% within a month.
