Datadog CoTerm is a CLI utility that can record terminal sessions and add a layer of validation to your terminal commands.

In Datadog, a page titled Terminal Session. An embedded video showing a terminal session. A scrubber bar controls video playback.

With CoTerm, you can:

  • Record terminal sessions and analyze these recordings in Datadog.

    Investigating terminal sessions provides context about how system and security incidents were caused and remediated.

  • Protect against the accidental execution of dangerous terminal commands.

    CoTerm can intercept terminal commands and warn you before you execute a risky command. For even more oversight, you can use CoTerm with Datadog Case Management to require approvals for particularly impactful commands.

For your security, CoTerm uses Sensitive Data Scanner to detect and obfuscate sensitive data, such as passwords and API keys.

Review terminal sessions in Datadog

You can review your recorded terminal sessions and process data in Datadog:

  • As replays: Watch terminal sessions in a video-like player.
  • As events: In Event Explorer, each recorded command appears as an event.
  • As logs: In Log Explorer, you can perform full-text searches and queries of terminal sessions as multi-line logs.

Known limitations

  • The maximum duration of a recorded session is approximately 24 hours.
  • Sensitive data redaction can fail if the sensitive data is spread across multiple lines.
  • On Linux, seccomp-based tracing prevents you from elevating your permissions during a recording.
