Imperva Database Firewall
SecureSphere Database Firewall (DBF) effectively protects databases from attacks, data loss and theft. With real-time monitoring, alerting and blocking, pre-built security policies and audit rules SecureSphere protects the most valuable database resources and ensures data integrity.
Database attacks such as SQL injection are on the rise and databases containing sensitive data are a top target for hackers and malicious insiders. Many databases are vulnerable and attackers take advantage of the fact that patching databases takes on average 6-9 months. And recent incidents show that insiders may represent a significant risk to data security. By validating access requests and identifying material variance when users perform unexpected queries SecureSphere accurately blocks exploit attempts.
Unique to the industry, SecureSphere enables customers to optimize their DBF implementations by combining agent-based monitoring and network activity monitoring. SecureSphere database agents can be configured for monitoring local privileged activity exclusively, or for monitoring all database activity. SecureSphere can block attacks and unauthorized access both on the network and on the DB server. SecureSphere’s hybrid architecture provides comprehensive database security with minimal overhead and unparalleled scalability.
