We performed a comparison between DataSunrise Database Security and IBM Security Guardium Data Protection 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."We have a law in Turkey similar to the GDPR in the European Union. It's almost like a replica. Complying with this law is crucial, and the service plays a significant role. Many customer inquiries revolve around not retaining their data. The service addresses this by providing functionality for masking data within the databases. So, if a user requests data deletion, we can remove any information we have on them within the database, ensuring compliance with the law."
"The most valuable feature of DataSunrise Database Security is Dynamic Masking. You don't need to build copies of the database and is highly customizable. It is a very good unique feature. It also has built-in algorithms, or machine learning, which is quite helpful, because it understands the user's behaviors and patterns to apply certain policies."
"Setting up Guardium was easy and straightforward."
"Compliance Quick Start – Quick, GUI, step-by-step guide to automate compliance and give the customer a quick ROI."
"We now have the ability to begin to understand how people, applications, and service accounts are interacting with data to better protect it."
"You could easily throw it onto a VM or add additional hardware. One central manager supports about a hundred managed units, so scalability is excellent."
"The reporting side is also very, very good, especially its flexibility which allows you to tailor the reports to whatever information you want."
"Guardium does a great job of capturing data and having the ability of trying to pull it out and make sense of it. Using it for business applications is its biggest capability."
"Encryption is not straightforward, but Guardium made the setup easy for us."
"IBM Guardium Data Protection has better integration options than most of the leading competitors on the market, and the price is always better."
"The solution has many features but I would like to see vulnerability assessments in the next release."
"I believe there's room for improvement in their distributor network, especially in Turkey. This is why I was exploring alternatives to DataSunrise Database Security. However, the product itself is quite good. One suggestion for enhancement could be adding an encryption module on top of the masking features, perhaps a more permanent form of preservative encryption."
"Since we are resellers we do not have enough information about the technical aspects and the areas of improvement. However, one consistent report that we receive from our customers is that IBM does not offer timely support due to the size of the organisation. It would be great if they could improve their response time."
"We've had some issues recently that we're working through, on the agent software that runs on the databases."
"More automation, user guides, and tips would make this solution better."
"The solution lacks control over database security."
"I would like them to support cloud services."
"Can't be used for a NoSQL database, which is limiting."
"I would like to see streamlining of some of the agent features, some of the patches; make it a little bit more user-friendly on the documentation."
"Deployment process is very complicated as you need to now all advanced parameters. Almost not possible to figure out for yourself."
