Activity Monitoring:

Data makes the world go 'round and a lot of this critical data resides in databases. This is why it is important to monitor database activity in order to prevent attacks and invasions.

Organizations not paying sufficient attention to data security run the significant risk of having their valuable information compromised or stolen. Fallout from such a breach can include serious financial losses, regulatory penalties, or even a loss of reputation. IT operations as well as compliance and security organizations must protect the strategic information in their databases from misuse, mistakes, insider abuse, and external threats or suffer the consequences.

Managing data security risk is more complicated than simply installing antivirus software. Applications and databases are running in complex environments with numerous dependencies and business requirements. While organizations want to protect information, they need to do it in a way that doesn’t interfere with doing business. To properly address these competing needs, the technology that has risen to the forefront is Database Activity Monitoring (DAM).

DbProtect combines discovery, vulnerability scanning, real-time activity monitoring, auditing, and optional encryption to help organizations reduce risk and enhance compliance.

Traffic Analyser:

Performing network traffic analysis is a critical skill set for any organization that wants to monitor incoming traffic (intrusion detection) as well as monitoring outgoing traffic (extrusion detection). Analysis and visualization of network traffic is important for optimizing and protecting the operation of networked IT infrastructures. Tools are needed, not only to fix network problems on time, but also to prevent network failure, to detect inside and outside threats, and make good decisions for network planning.

The ability to dynamically collect and analyze network traffic and to accurately report the current network status is critical in the face of large-scale intrusions, and enables networks to continually function despite of traffic fluctuations. This methodology based upon the network traffic model can be used to detect large-scale flooding attacks, for example, a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack.
