• Vulnerability Assessment: Schedule CVE, CIS, STIG, and custom VA tests on a regular basis to be sure servers are hardened against malicious intruders

• Compliance Automation: Guided walkthrough for regulation control coverage with templates for policies and reports, detailed audit reports to streamline workflow, seamless integration with SIEM tools

• Advanced Analytics: Real-time detection of security incidents such as database ransomware attacks, SQL injection, non-encrypted access to sensitive data, and more

Reduce risk with real-time visibility and actionable intelligence: This solution offers advanced analytical tool with a combination of rule-based policies and symptom analysis to detect patterns and behaviors that map to known industry attack vectors, thereby identifying internal and external threats.

Enforce granular access control down to the data level: IBM Guardium Data Protection empowers you to protect your data both where users, applications and services consume it and at the infrastructure level, where data is stored in databases, data warehouse, DBaaS sources and more.

Minimize the total cost of ownership and performance impact: Centralized management of operations, policies and auditing further supports scalability by simplifying the aggression and normalization of multiple data sources for enterprise reporting.

IBM Guardium Data Protection meets that need by showing you where critical data is stored, how its being accessed and providing recommendations for how best to protect it - all while helping you meet compliance and privacy requirements in the process.
