GlencoreDatadog at Glencore: Security Telemetry
Glencore, a materials organization in Switzerland, uses Bits AI from Datadog to support detection engineering for detection engineers.
Glencore standardized security telemetry on Datadog instead of keeping parallel copies.
“In Switzerland, detection engineers already knew where security telemetry went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.”
“Datadog is an observability platform that unifies metrics, traces, logs, and security signals for cloud applications.”

Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Risk and compliance | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for security telemetry |
| Risk and compliance | Detection engineers work from the same Bits AI record for security telemetry |
| Capability | Detection engineering stays visible to adjacent teams through Bits AI |
Story
Glencore did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed detection engineering to move. In Switzerland, detection engineers already knew where security telemetry went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
Bits AI from Datadog is now in that path. Datadog is an observability platform that unifies metrics, traces, logs, and security signals for cloud applications. The company treats it as production tooling for detection engineering, which is why detection engineers live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
Glencore can show how security telemetry is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run detection engineering on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
