## Overview{% #overview %}

App and API Protection works by leveraging the [Datadog Ruby library](https://github.com/DataDog/dd-trace-rb/) to monitor and secure your Ruby service. The library integrates seamlessly with your existing application without requiring code changes.

For detailed compatibility information, including supported Ruby versions, frameworks, and deployment environments, see [Ruby Compatibility Requirements](https://docs.datadoghq.com/security/application_security/setup/ruby/compatibility.md).
