Sarra Zaghbib developed security automation and data model enhancements across the DataDog/terraform-provider-datadog and DataDog/agent-payload repositories, focusing on scalable telemetry and configurable security rules. She introduced a new 'hash' action type for threat detection rules and enriched process activity data with temporal context by adding first and last seen timestamps. Using Go, Protocol Buffers, and YAML, Sarra modernized the protobuf data model, consolidating redundant fields to improve analytics compatibility and maintainability. Additionally, she expanded secure data scanning in DataDog/cloudformation-template by implementing IAM policy automation for S3 and KMS access, leveraging AWS CloudFormation and DevOps best practices.

Month 2025-11 summary: Key features delivered: Implemented Datadog-SDS-DSPMPolicy to enable the Agentless Scanner to access S3 resources and decrypt KMS keys, attached to the Datadog AWS Integration role (commit e69b7ca8a5ed77df12701a9cb2cbaae52a927b42). Major bugs fixed: None reported this month. Overall impact and accomplishments: Expanded data security scanning coverage for S3 and KMS-protected data, reduced manual IAM work, and improved security/compliance posture; supports repeatable deployments via CloudFormation templates. Technologies/skills demonstrated: IAM policy as code, CloudFormation templating, AWS IAM role policy attachments, Datadog integration, secure data scanning workflows.
