"Currently, we have audit features for auditing databases, for example, granular auditing, which we really enjoy. We've been using it to check what users do."
"I like Imperva SecureSphere platform forms. Imperva SecureSphere is the foundation for SecureSphere data, file and web application solutions."
"The most valuable features of Imperva SecureSphere Database Security are the user-friendliness, easy-to-use interface compared to competitors, database operations do not need a specialist, and simple to manage for our security team. Additionally, the solution can show all the databases and the level of sensitivity. It can show what is more sensitive or less sensitive."
"The technical support for Imperva is super, super, super."
"We use it for database security, vulnerability analysis, discovery, and handling requests from applications and users."
"They have very good documentation and knowledgebase resources that add to the depth of their support."

"All of the other components that make up the infrastructure in the environment including the operating system are also quite valuable."
"It has reduced the stress of collecting database event logs in silos from each database."
"Oracle Audit Vault has a lot of great features, but what I find most valuable is the database firewall."
"The most valuable feature of Oracle Audit Vault is that it is agentless and enhanced user interface."
"Our clients can see all of their past actions or the wrong activity done on the network. We can load the diagnostics for the business."
"The updates could be better."
"Database security from the access management perspective could be better."
"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."
"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."
"I'd like to see some sort of solution for storage."
"Overall, it's a very good product but they could do with some modifications log-wise."
"The firewall features are not very strong and should be improved."
"I would like to see integration such that there is support for different kinds of environments, such as on-premises versus cloud."
"Customized reporting is something that we are struggling with, and it is quite tough for us."

"This solution doesn't audit the network."
"An easy, friendly user interface would be nice to have, since this would enable administrators to identify important events with a prompt response."
"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."
"I hear from many people that say IBM Guardian is better than Oracle Audit Vault when it comes to performance. IBM Guardian works transparently in the database, but Oracle Audit Vault consumes some ratios on the server."
"The performance of Oracle Audit Vault could be improved, especially in handling large data collections and generating reports on time."
"The product monitors only the database and not the operating systems."
