Find out what your peers are saying about IBM, Imperva, Oracle and others in Database Security."The dashboard is very simple. It has an easy to use interface."
"We use it to protect files and to prevent users from browsing them while they are being used."
"The solution is very good at preventing intrusions. You can definitely rely on this solution to cover your security."
"It is extremely stable, and can expand as per our needs due to its stability."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the security aspects."
"The biggest thing, for us lately, has been their cloud tools. They're like Intercept X from Sophos, where they'll test for ransomware. Fortinet has the same sort of set up with their cloud devices. So your firewall picks up something suspicious, it sends it up to the cloud for analysis. We also have their in-house antivirus. Having different antivirus checkpoints throughout the network is a good thing as well."
"Out-of-the-box policies ensure our compliance with standards like SOX, ISO 27001, and so on."
"All of the other components that make up the infrastructure in the environment including the operating system are also quite valuable."
"Technical support is perfect."
"A powerful, flexible solution for database traffic monitoring."
"Oracle Audit Vault has a lot of great features, but what I find most valuable is the database firewall."
"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 solution is very stable and reliable."
"It is a good product for controlling all databases. It is helpful for auditing the data. When people are doing any actions on the databases, they are recorded automatically in the vault. You can work on the collected data to find out exactly what is happening on a database. You can implement database encryption on the databases to control people's access to the database content, such as rows and tables."
"I would like better APIs and integration with other products, like Python and SQL."
"They need to improve the web filter to make it more user-friendly."
"I'm an old-school guy. I really don't like web GUI interfaces. They're always slow and laggy and their design is restricted, whereas a binary deployment for an admin tool is always faster, easier, more flexible. I would like that kind of functionality from Fortinet."
"We had some issues trying to fix some critical bugs, such as the SSL encryption."
"The pricing of this solution is a little bit on the high side and can be improved."
"Some use case analyses could be improved."
"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."
"This solution doesn't audit the network."
"The product monitors only the database and not the operating systems."
"The performance of Oracle Audit Vault could be improved, especially in handling large data collections and generating reports on time."
"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."
"Stability could be improved, we have had some challenges"
"They should simplify the integration and work with different vendors and mechanisms."
"Currently, you need two servers: one for Audit Vault and one for the firewall. If they can combine them into one server, it will be great because it is costly to have two servers. It will also make its installation easier. I have heard that in the new version, there will be only one server for both."
