COMPLIANCE

Application Security, Inc. enables organizations to combine security and compliance efforts by proactively identifying and remediating database vulnerabilities, monitoring threats in real-time, and securing sensitive data where it lives - in the database.

Application Security, Inc. helps organizations meet commercial and federal security regulations, including:

• Continuous Monitoring
• FISMA
• NIST
• DISA STIG
• SOX
• PCI
• HIPAA

Compliance regulations can be convoluted, difficult to understand, and subject to varying interpretations by auditors. It is important to understand that protecting the database is mandated in each of these regulations.  Protecting the database and meeting compliance regulations can be accomplished through the effective management of five database security process control steps:

1. Isolate Sensitive Databases: Maintain an accurate inventory of all databases deployed across the enterprise.
   
   
2. Eliminate Vulnerabilities:  Identify and fix vulnerabilities that are exposing the database on a continuous basis.
   
   
3. Enforce Least Privileges:  Reset user access controls and privileges to only the minimum database access required to do their jobs.
   
   
4. Monitor for Deviations: Implement appropriate policies and monitor for any and all activity that deviates from normal and authorized activity.
   
   
5. Respond to Suspicious Activity: Alert and respond to any unauthorized or suspicious activity in real-time to minimize risk of attack.
