Crossroads StrongBox® DBProtector™

Lack of traditional security measures are seldom the root cause in the highly publicized IT data breaches of today. Network firewalls are present to prevent external intrusions. The application and database security rules are in place to prevent unauthorized internal access. Roles, privileges, assignment rules… all in place. What is missing is the automated implementation of logical business policies that prevent authorized internal users to either intentionally or unintentionally misuse data.

Crossroads Strongbox DBProtector provides database security at a logical business policy level and stops 'authorized misuse' of database information. DBProtector provides policy-based intrusion detection, prevention, and compliance auditing. It is a non-intrusive, high-performance, standalone, enterprise-class appliance that in real-time:

  • Inspects database activities
  • Enforces security policies
  • Alerts on suspicious activities
  • Captures audit trails for compliance reporting, security forensics and electronic discovery.
  • Provides separation of duty between security personnel and database/network administrators ensuring regulatory compliance

DBProtector sits in the data path and inspects SQL statements before they reach the database. This non-intrusive, zero impact, plug and play approach minimizes network application and database server impact and deployment risks.

The ability to prove that information was not breached is as important as the ability to identify a breach.

Through English-like policies and customizable templates, DBProtector provides separation of duty by putting security managers in charge of corporate security objectives. Fortifying regulatory compliance through an intelligent policy engine, automated audit reporting and forensic capabilities, DBprotector provides the ability to answer who, what, when, where and how information is or was accessed.
