Database Security

Hackers tend to go where the targets are the most attractive, and the defenses are the weakest. As a result, enterprise applications and databases are under attack like never before.

In order to protect their data, organizations need to bring the same level of protection to applications and databases as they apply to servers and networks.
These solutions must automatically detect and respond to application-level threats in real time, and provide controls that are granular enough to facilitate access for customers and business partners while keeping attackers out.

DbProtect from AppSec provides complete database security for the enterprise. Through a system informed by industry leading best practices and proven methodologies, DbProtect helps organizations locate, priorities, fix, monitor and report on database vulnerabilities and compliance efforts.

Strengthen Your Security Infrastructure
Database security solutions must be designed to provide sufficient protections to ensure system integrity and security. DbProtect satisfies these needs through the following techniques and protections:

Tamper resistant and tamper evident architecture
DbProtect ensures the integrity of the information chain of custody for auditing, compliance and legal purposes. Our secure data repository is both tamper resistant and tamper evident to capture all attempts to alter or modify log contents.

Segregation of Duties Ensure Compliance and Data Integrity
DbProtect supports access controls that can provide a clear demarcation of duties between audit, security and IT professionals. Strict enforcement of this separation ensures that organizations can meet and demonstrate adherence to regulatory and compliance requirements like SOX and PCI-DSS.

User Authentication
Organizations seeking to maintain a single source for authentication control of groups and/or individuals can leverage their existing systems, like Active Directory, through DbProtect.

Privileged Activity Monitoring and Auditing
The “inside threat” is more than just risks from attackers that have penetrated your organization. The greater risk, and the one that is harder to stop, comes from users who abuse access, mishandle information or place the database at risk unintentionally. For this reason, DbProtect focuses attention on privileged activity in addition to privileged user monitoring. When combined, these techniques capture the greatest number of database risks, virtually eliminate database breaches and effectively secure your data.
