Application Security Announces DbProtect 2008.2

Application Security has announced DbProtect 2008.2. The new version of the DbProtect database security suite will provide customers with integrated vulnerability assessment and database activity monitoring dashboards and reporting templates. Given today's increased regulatory initiatives involving enterprise data and data security, flexible and customizable reporting capabilities are especially critical.

In contrast to activity monitoring point products, which use proprietary reporting and are limited to network events, DbProtect now offers more than 100 different reports and combines vulnerability assessment and activity monitoring data. As a result, organizations gain a more complete understanding of the state of their database controls and how they relate to security and compliance requirements. Based on Cognos infrastructure, DbProtect reports include trending, progress, privileged activity, patch-gap analysis and compliance templates.

In addition to enhanced reporting, dashboard and customization capabilities, DbProtect 2008.2 rounds out scanning and monitoring support to include both network and host-based deployments across most major platform and host operating system combinations. Also new to the suite are task automation capabilities, ranging from discovery to alert distribution, allowing database administrators to streamline their workflow.

DbProtect 2008.2 will be available in Q2 2008.
