We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"It has provided us with a unique opportunity to automate risk discovery.""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.""It has reduced the stress of collecting database event logs in silos from each database.""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.""Technical support is perfect.""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.""This solution acts as a complete data warehouse for our audit data."

"Transfer and vulnerability scanning are the most valuable features of this product.""The most valuable feature of the solution is that you can have a good view which is provided with a proper division of all your databases, which you can see in Trustwave DbProtect.""This solution helps our clients to monitor their database use, and detect violations of the policy."

Cons
"Stability could be improved, we have had some challenges""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.""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.""An easy, friendly user interface would be nice to have, since this would enable administrators to identify important events with a prompt response.""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 support could improve.""Customized reporting is something that we are struggling with, and it is quite tough for us."

"The product does not have encryption or data masking.""We have not been able to integrate this product with a lot of standard incident response solutions, so an open API would help in this regard.""I have seen that the tool's installation phase has some problems regarding the versions, specifically the version of SQL."

    Overview
    Oracle Audit Vault monitors Oracle and non-Oracle database traffic to detect and block threats, as well as improves compliance reporting by consolidating audit data from databases, operating systems, directories, and other sources.

    Trustwave DbProtect is a security platform designed for consistent monitoring and management of enterprise databases within the data center.

    Built on a centrally managed and distributed architecture, DbProtect uncovers database weaknesses. This includes configuration mistakes, identification and access control issues, missing patches, or any toxic combination of settings that could lead to escalation of privileges attacks, data leakage, denial-of-service (DoS), or unauthorized modification of data held within data stores – both relational databases and big data stores.
