Guardium for Mainframes
Tracking the details of who is accessing data and what is done with the data is now required for compliance with such regulations as Sarbanes Oxley (SOX) and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS). Guardium for Mainframe is the only database auditing solution that provides 100% visibility into mainframe database activity without impacting business processes.
Current solutions for mainframe databases have been limited to the use of logging utilities such as trace or transactions logs, solutions that do not capture all of the critical activity. Trace utilities can also severely impact performance, and logging utilities capture less data than is legally required and are not real-time, leaving your business exposed.
Guardium for Mainframes provides 100% visibility to all database activity in real-time—without impacting your business processing. This allows you to identify access to sensitive data and unauthorized changes by privileged users.
With Guardium for Mainframes, anomalous behavior and activities that violate corporate policies are detected and reported immediately, generating policy-based actions such as security alerts, providing the data protection you need. You can protect your data and meet regulatory requirements—without sacrificing performance and availability.
