New Database Reporting Console Tracks Compliance




September 26, 2008 —  For many companies, data regulation and security present a two-headed problem with no silver-bullet solution. Noncompliance with external and internal requirements is bad; not even knowing where one stands, as is often the case, is worse.

Application Security announced the creation of a reporting console for its DbProtect database security suite that’s meant to give business executives and operational managers deeper insight into organizational security and compliance. Analytics 1.0, based on the Cognos business intelligence suite, offers dashboards and reports tailored to the requirements of the bosses and the DBAs.

The dashboards, covering compliance, operational and security key performance indicators, offer drill-down capabilities for increased detail when desired. They also have many reports available for benchmarking security and compliance efforts against industry best practices.

Reports cover compliance, patch-gap analysis, privileged activity, progress and trending. They can be designed to address an organization’s unique auditing goals and can be produced in a range of formats—including HTML, Microsoft Excel and Word, PDF, and raw output—for easy absorption into other information-collection methods.

The company said that the goal in developing the reporting console was to offer businesses a more complete view of the state of their data controls relative to the appropriate requirements.
