TC EnergyTC Energy Adopts Datadog for Detection Engineering
TC Energy, an energy organization in Canada, uses Security Monitoring from Datadog to support detection engineering for detection engineers.
Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Risk and compliance | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for security telemetry |
| Risk and compliance | Detection engineering stays visible to adjacent teams through Security Monitoring |
| Risk and compliance | Detection engineers work from the same Security Monitoring record for security telemetry |
Story
Inside TC Energy, detection engineering used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in energy groups working out of Canada. Detection engineers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
TC Energy uses Security Monitoring from Datadog as the working layer for security telemetry. Datadog is an observability platform that unifies metrics, traces, logs, and security signals for cloud applications. The practical change is simple: detection engineering has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What TC Energy gets from Datadog is a durable place to run detection engineering and a way for detection engineers to see the same security telemetry at the same time.
