Embarcadero® DSAuditor™ - Features and Benefits
Web client with role-based access control
  • Access charts, tables, and reports from anywhere on your intranet
  • Extend the use of access and activity data to more people in your organization without compromising security
  • Customize the interface to present the information you want to see, how you want to see it
Pre-built charts for the most common performance, security, and privacy metrics

  • Security and privacy dashboards include built-in knowledge and specific regulatory references to aid in your security and compliance efforts
  • Each person can customize and add charts to best fit their needs
Real-time alerting and playback
  • Monitor sessions of legitimate users and issue alerts for risky behavior such as unusually large 'Select' statements of a number of failed queries
  • Monitor for unauthorized access attempts such as failed log on attempts or after-hours activity
  • Playback a series of events to better understand what happened and the impact to the database
Flexible, scalable architecture
  • While DSAuditor is network-based it is offered as a software package rather than an appliance, providing you with a more cost-effective and fully optimized hardware selection
  • DSAuditor's use of local collectors ensures that all privileged user activity is captured and eliminates the need for a network tap or the use of valuable spanning ports
  • Our open and flexible architecture also allows you to select the O/S and DBMS for a perfect fit to your existing environment and processes
  • No need to enable native logging functions, keeping your servers humming
  • DSAuditor can handle high transaction volumes: 10,000 SQL transactions sustained, more than 40,000 per second for 1 hour bursts
Broad platform support
  • DSAuditor collects audit trails for DB2, Informix, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase ASE, Sybase IQ, and Teradata running on UNIX or Windows (as supported by the DBMS vendors)
  • DSAuditor can be run on AIX, NCR MP-RAS, HP-UX, HP Tru-64, Red Hat Linux, Sun Solaris, SUSE Linux, or Microsoft Windows Server via VMWare virtual appliance
  • DSAuditor can store the collected audit logs on DB2, Oracle, or Teradata
 

Customer Quotes

" ... More than two thousand users access our data warehouse from across the university. Therefore, we need detailed usage information to set priorities for continual change and enhancements. DSAuditor provides us with this insight. This database tool gives us the information we need to improve performance for our users, monitor access from a security perspective and ensure that we are not allocating time and resources to backing up databases that are rarely used...
