Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

A futuristic MCP client docking bay
V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

3 capabilities in this set.

Part of 10 available through Datadog Security.

  1. 08

    Triage signal

Real work

What teams actually run

01

Rapid Alert Triage

When a critical signal appears, you can tell your agent to archive it as a false positive or keep it open for investigation.

02

Active Threat Hunting

You can search for specific malicious IP addresses across raw logs to see if an attacker has moved laterally.

03

Detection Rule Deployment

Security engineers can push new Log Detection rules to Datadog by describing the malicious activity they want to catch.

04

Security Policy Auditing

Compliance teams can verify which low-value log vectors are being filtered out by checking security filter configurations.

Automate a task

Put Datadog Security to work on one thing.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

Datadog Security works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put Datadog Security to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 10 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of Datadog Security, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with Datadog Security. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

Built for the work Datadog Security owners hand off.

This MCP is built for security professionals who need to interact with Datadog telemetry without switching between multiple browser tabs.

  • 01

    Security Analysts

    They use the agent to search for signals and triage active threats.

  • 02

    Incident Responders

    They use the agent to hunt for threats using raw log context and IP tracking.

  • 03

    Security Engineers

    They use the agent to deploy and manage new detection rules.

  • 04

    Compliance Officers

    They use the agent to audit security filters and rule configurations.

FAQ

Questions Datadog Security owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I connect my Datadog account?

    You need to provide your Datadog API Key and APP Key when you subscribe to the MCP on Vinkius. Once entered, the connection is ready to use in your AI client.

  • 02

    Which AI clients can I use with this MCP?

    This MCP works with any compatible client, including Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.

  • 03

    Can I create new detection rules with my agent?

    Yes, you can use the create_detection_rule capability to build new Cloud SIEM Log Detection rules using natural language.

  • 04

    Is it possible to audit existing security rules?

    Yes, you can use the get_detection_rule and list_detection_rules capabilities to inspect the logic and severity of your current rules.

  • 05

    What happens when I archive a signal?

    When you use the triage_signal capability to archive a signal, you must provide a reason, such as 'false_positive', which is then logged in your Datadog security timeline.

  • 06

    Can my agent help me triage security alerts in Datadog?

    Yes. Use the 'triage_signal' capability. You can update active threats from 'open' to 'archived', providing a required justification like 'false_positive'. The agent will push the status update directly to the Datadog SIEM platform.

  • 07

    How do I search for malicious activities matching specific IP addresses?

    Use the 'get_raw_log_context' capability. Provide the suspicious IP address, and the agent will perform a threat-hunting search with a 10s lookbehind to capture highly localized context matching that source, helping you verify attacker footprints.

  • 08

    Can I see all active security detection rules through the agent?

    Absolutely. The 'list_detection_rules' capability returns all custom and prepackaged Datadog Cloud SIEM rules. Your agent can then inspect specific rule schemas to verify evaluation windows, trigger cases, and notification hooks.
