Datadog has successfully completed an independent assessment under the Australian government’s Information Security Registered Assessors Program (IRAP), achieving the classification level of Protected.
This milestone applies to Datadog’s full suite of observability and cyber security capabilities deployed from its Australian infrastructure. The new status provides public sector agencies and highly regulated enterprises with heightened confidence to monitor sensitive workloads securely in hybrid and cloud environments.
Accelerating Secure Cloud Adoption for Government
Achieving the IRAP Protected classification removes substantial procurement hurdles for public sector bodies and organisations managing sensitive national data. This standard deepens regional trust, aligns with strict digital transformation and compliance frameworks like CPS 230, and accelerates the modern adoption of unified cloud monitoring solutions across Australia and New Zealand.
“As a home-grown Australian consultancy, Mantel has a long history of supporting secure, IRAP-compliant platforms. We see Datadog as an absolutely crucial technology partner in securing data for the public sector. Its achievement of IRAP assessed services for Protected classified information is a huge step that directly enables us to deliver best-in-class, modern observability services with the highest level of government confidence.”
