Enforce custom rules in Datadog IaC Security scanning


Summary

Datadog’s custom rules for IaC Security allow organizations to enforce specific internal standards, such as required tags or approved instance types, using Rego-based policies. The platform simplifies this process by using AI to generate policies from natural language descriptions and providing an editor to validate rules before they are published. Once active, these custom rules integrate into existing developer workflows to automatically catch organization-specific violations before infrastructure is deployed.
