DATABASE SECURITY SOLUTIONS

Fortinet database security and compliance products offer centrally-managed, enterprise-scale, database hardening; fast, comprehensive policy compliance; vulnerability assessment; and database monitoring and auditing for improved data security across the enterprise. Automatic database discovery finds all databases on the network, including those across subnet and WAN boundaries. 24 x 7 database activity monitoring and auditing captures all forms of database activity, from administrative events to user operations, to detect erroneous or malicious activity. Database auditing records all database activity for complete and accurate audit trails, with independent storage for additional security. Hundreds of pre-installed policies cover standard industry and government requirements and database security best practices, plus a comprehensive set of graphical reports, to deliver out-of-the-box readiness and immediate value. These reports include compliance reporting for important regulations such as PCI-DSS, SOX, GLBA, and HIPAA. Fortinet database security and compliance is available both in one of three appliances and as software for a wide variety of enterprise operating systems.
