## Overview{% #overview %}

[**Picus Security**](https://app.picussecurity.com/) is a security validation platform that assesses and enhances an organization's defenses. It simulates real-world cyberattacks (e.g, phishing, malware) to evaluate security controls like firewalls, intrusion prevention systems, and endpoint security solutions.

- The **Picus Security Datadog Integration** allows you to collect and visualize Picus Security data **as logs** in Datadog. The data collected includes:

- **Inventory data**: Picus Agents, Integrations, Integration Agents, Mitigation Devices, Simulations.

- **Threats data**

- **Activity data**

The integration includes following ready-to-use [Datadog Cloud SIEM](https://docs.datadoghq.com/security/cloud_siem.md) detection rules for enhanced monitoring and security:

1. Anomalous amount of failed login attempts detected in Picus Security
1. Detection of activity from a new or suspicious location in Picus Security

### Dashboards{% #dashboards %}

This integration includes **three out-of-the-box** dashboards:

1. **Picus Security - Inventory**: Visualizes Picus agents, integrations, integration agents, mitigation devices, and simulations data collected at a user-defined `interval_for_inventory`.
1. **Picus Security - Threats**: Shows threat data collected at the `min_collection_interval`.
1. **Picus Security - Activity**: Monitors activities performed in the Picus Security Web Application.
