Senhasegura Extends Privileged Access Management Security to Database Management
Mar 9, 2024 - CIO Influence
Database Proxy delivers highest protection for popular databases such as Oracle PostgreSQL and Microsoft SQL Server without sacrificing usability or performance
Senhasegura, a global provider of privileged access management (PAM) solutions, expanded its 3600 Privileged Platform capabilities with the launch of Database Proxy. Database Proxy seamlessly integrates Senhasegura’s PAM security controls with the industry’s most popular databases, helping database administrators (DBAs) manage data security, control, and compliance to better protect against costly data breaches.
Databases, with their vast quantities of sensitive data, are highly attractive targets for cyber attackers. In order to prevent malicious actors or disgruntled employees from stealing, editing, deleting or corrupting the database, the verification of each user’s identity and appropriate access privileges is essential. However, company databases are often used and managed by multiple groups within the organization, making it even more difficult for database administrators to effectively secure and manage proper access.
Senhasegura’s new Database Proxy empowers DBAs with granular control over user and group access, safeguarding their company’s valuable data. Database Proxy intercepts every query or user action, making sure that every action is authorized and monitored. It offers the ability to execute specific actions based on the command, such as blocking execution or dropping the session. Database Proxy lets DBAs track and audit user activities, detect potential violations, and take proactive measures to uphold compliance standards.
