Secerno have launched a new version of its award-winning product,
Secerno.SQL, delivering the capability to manage database security
across the enterprise. Major corporations have many thousands of
databases, but Forrester estimates that within the next two to three
years there will be a widespread move to consolidate these. Building on
its predecessor (v2.0), Secerno.SQL v2.1 protects organisations'
data at a high level from known and unknown, external and internal
threats. Featuring patent-pending machine-learning technology that
observes how applications access the database, it allows organisations
to truly control and protect their data assets.
Claiming to enable organisations to define and enforce security
policies that segment and discriminate radically different types of
business access to increasingly-widely shared databases. It not only
determines who is allowed access to the database, at what time and from
where, but also uniquely controls individuals' behaviour whilst
accessing--yet without the system manager needing to develop and
maintain complex policy settings for every scenario. "Organisations
are seeing the business benefits of database consolidation, but then
they require that each of the remaining databases hold much more
sensitive data while being forced to grant access to many more users.
The challenge is to understand and control access by all users to the
data, if organisations are not to be left more vulnerable to internal
attack and internal mis-use of data," said Steve Hum, CEO, Secerno.
"At the same time, the rules for accessing databases have not
changed, which leaves organisations more vulnerable to security threats.
Secerno.SQL v2.1 eliminates this danger as policies can be set to the
most fine-grained level, regardless of where and how a database is being
accessed--ensuring any action in the database is justified and accounted
for."
