We performed a comparison between Imperva SecureSphere Database Security and Oracle Audit Vault based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Database Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The functionality is very useable and easy to understand."
"This is a stable product."
"The most valuable feature is the Data Masking."
"The integration is great."
"They have very good documentation and knowledgebase resources that add to the depth of their support."
"It has a lot of different components that cover the needs of our customers."
"The technical support for Imperva is super, super, super."
"Imperva's most valuable features are ease of use and log correlation. I also like the ability to trace activity from the host machine to the server access, the user details, and the exact query that they executed. If a database administrator or application process executes a query on the database, people know exactly what was executed, including all the variables."
"Our client was scheduled to take a year and a half to set up compliance, but by deploying this product they were able to do the compliance reports within three months."
"It has provided us with a unique opportunity to automate risk discovery."
"All of the other components that make up the infrastructure in the environment including the operating system are also quite valuable."
"This solution acts as a complete data warehouse for our audit data."
"The critical event alerts and reporting features have greatly reduced loss of man hours that would have been spent on going through the whole audit event logs."
"The solution is very stable and reliable."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Audit Vault is that it is agentless and enhanced user interface."
"A powerful, flexible solution for database traffic monitoring."
"It is very expensive. Its price can be better."
"Performance can be slow under heavy loads, but this should be adjusted by scaling."
"The only challenge I see is that SecureSphere is deployed on servers or databases which are held on physical infrastructure. However, there are databases which are hosted on cloud platforms and Imperva has a separate tool altogether for that, not SecureSphere."
"Data encryption. Yeah, Imperva needs to pull up on data encryption and make it a standard feature to allow maybe for tokenization, encryption of data, and things like that."
"Improvements can be made in data enrichment and enhancing the GUI (Graphical User Interface) for a better user experience."
"The GUI is bad."
"The interface is not user-friendly."
"Overall, it's a very good product but they could do with some modifications log-wise."
"This solution doesn't audit the network."
"One feature that is missing is the ability to have a secret server that is always encrypted."
"They should simplify the integration and work with different vendors and mechanisms."
"Some of our customers were asking about latency when the application wants to get to the database."
"Stability could be improved, we have had some challenges"
"We would like to see the ability to administer and manage the solution through Enterprise Manager 13c, and development of the dashboards that are generally missing."
"Customized reporting is something that we are struggling with, and it is quite tough for us."
"The product monitors only the database and not the operating systems."
