Instrument a Python application
Instrument a Python application with the Secure Application Python extension.
Secure Application integrates runtime vulnerability detection into your Python applications through a Python extension (secureapp-python-agent) that works with the Splunk Distribution of OpenTelemetry Python (also called the Splunk Python agent).
Follow the steps in Install the Splunk Python agent.
Your Python application launches with the Splunk Python agent enabled. The agent does the following:
-
Sends vulnerability and library data to the Splunk Observability Cloud back end.
-
Collects potential attack events at runtime.
-
Reports data once at application startup and then every 24 hours thereafter.
