Oracle Audit Vault Capabilities Added Database Servers

To assist organizations seeking to further mitigate security risks, satisfy compliance regulations, and protect their enterprise databases, Oracle(R) Audit Vault (http://www.oracle.com/database/audit-vault.html) has introduced support for collecting audit data from IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX and Windows (IBM DB2) and Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise (ASE) database servers.

-- Oracle Audit Vault offers organizations a centralized auditing and activity monitoring solution for their Oracle and third party databases.

Comprehensive Database Auditing and Activity Monitoring Solution
-- Oracle Audit Vault now captures audit data from IBM DB2 versions 8.2 and 9.5 and Sybase ASE versions 12.5 and 15.0, in addition to Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and 2005 and Oracle Database 11g (http://www.oracle.com/database/index.html).

-- Oracle Audit Vault addresses the lack of IBM, Microsoft and Sybase solutions for enterprise database auditing and activity monitoring.

-- With Oracle Audit Vault, audit data is consolidated automatically into a secure, centralized repository built using Oracle's proven data warehousing software, and analyzed in real-time against enterprise-defined policies. Any unauthorized activities can be detected immediately using Oracle Audit Vault's alerts dashboard.

-- In addition, Oracle Audit Vault delivers pre-built, customizable reports to help address the need for comprehensive compliance reporting for regulations such as the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard (DSS), Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act. Oracle Audit Vault's reports can be saved and shared within the enterprise as well as with external auditors.

-- Oracle Audit Vault can be used to monitor privileged user activities as well as privileged user controls enforced by Oracle Database Vault (http://www.oracle.com/database/database-vault.html), the industry's only native solution for real-time enforcement of preventive database controls. By using Oracle Audit Vault, Oracle Database Vault customers are further assured of the integrity of their preventive controls.

-- Oracle leads the industry in native database auditing with fine-grained auditing at the user, statement and object levels that provide organizations the capabilities to effectively monitor all database activities.
