Comprehensive reporting capabilities and data monitoring enhance organizational compliance

  • November 05, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

The primary use case of the product is for compliance, in order to create a report on the security of data, where the data is, and access to the information.

How has it helped my organization?

The solution helps us to easily manage data security and comply with regulations by providing comprehensive reports and data monitoring capabilities.

What is most valuable?

It is very easy to obtain reports and manage the reporting interface. It also supports various platforms like SQL, IBM database, and Oracle.

What needs improvement?

The user interface could be improved and modernized. Additionally, IBM could enhance their support in some cases.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using IBM for more than six months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The product is very solid and stable, offering reliable protection.

How are customer service and support?

The support could be improved, particularly regarding response times for some modules. I would rate their support a seven out of ten.

What was our ROI?

I couldn't say much about the return on investment.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing is good, and I have no problem with it. Although there is no flexibility to compete with other products, it generally costs between one hundred and three hundred thousand per year depending on the configuration and size of the installation.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend Guardium because it is a very solid and stable protection, mainly due to its extensive cloud coverage and support for multiple platforms.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.

Efficient data monitoring with powerful visualization capabilities and good support

  • September 25, 2024
  • Review provided by PeerSpot

What is our primary use case?

We use IBM Security Guardium Data Protection to monitor our databases.

How has it helped my organization?

It helps us with the visualization of the data and to monitor our databases. We also use it to send the logs to QRadar. For our organization, it has been very helpful in locating and discovering sensitive information in the databases. This function is vital for us.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is the visualization of data and the ability to monitor our databases. We regularly use it to send logs to QRadar, which is also a significant benefit.

What needs improvement?

One aspect that could be improved is the support for locating and discovering sensitive information in the databases. We also deal with updates manually on Sundays, and sometimes face bugs with the newer versions.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have more than one year of experience with IBM Security Guardium Data Protection.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability is good, although sometimes we need to create new aggregators because the log files on the database become too big. However, we have handled it easily since we have done it numerous times.

How are customer service and support?

The support from IBM is pretty good. We are a big client, and we receive excellent support from them. I would rate it a ten.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Here, we use IBM Security Guardium Data Protection for some databases and audit tools from Oracle for others. The switch to Guardium was likely due to commercial reasons and security considerations.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was straightforward. It involves setting up the aggregator and the agents on the databases. In a big environment, it doesn't take too long.

What about the implementation team?

Three cybersecurity analysts maintain the solution, including myself. When the environment was created three years ago, I was not involved, but the deployment now is manageable with three people.

What was our ROI?

The return on investment is good for us. We use it almost every month due to our auditing needs, and it has helped us significantly.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I can't provide details on the pricing because I don't deal with the billing. We have a big package with QRadar, Guardium, and other tools.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend IBM Security Guardium Data Protection because it is a very good product.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

The most valuable features of Guardium are its ability to discover data more efficiently compared to competitors and its comprehensive platform with many features. We appreciate its ease of implementation and the local support available for the product.

How was the initial setup?

What about the implementation team?

I did not help deploy Guardium directly, but it was part of a project aiming to enhance data protection.

What was our ROI?

The return on investment is beneficial as we have one platform with many features, providing solutions to multiple problems for us.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing of Guardium is similar to Imperva and includes licensing costs. Overall, it is considered reasonably priced for its capabilities.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We evaluated Imperva. The main differences we found were in the implementation experience and the support from the vendor. We found Guardium easier to implement and better supported.

What other advice do I have?

We highly recommend Guardium for its application and data protection capabilities, especially with its strong local support.
