Dynatrace deployed Davis AI as part of its Application Security product to continuously scan running applications for software vulnerabilities in real time, automatically prioritize the most critical ones based on actual runtime exposure, and recommend remediation steps — reducing the volume of security alerts that security teams need to manually review.

Dynatrace Runtime Vulnerability Analytics monitors loaded libraries and runtime components in production environments, matching them against vulnerability feeds and the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) automatically. Unlike traditional scanners that report all known vulnerabilities, Davis AI applies runtime context — such as whether a vulnerable library is actually being called, whether a service is exposed to the public internet, and whether sensitive data is within reach — to produce a Davis Security Score (DSS) that re-ranks risk for each specific environment. The platform can automatically block certain attacks in real time and trigger workflow automation to create vulnerability remediation tickets in tools like Jira or ServiceNow.
