The collected information should contain all necessary details of all actions done with sensitive and personally identifiable data. DataSunrise can store audit logs in an internal built-in database or in several types of an external databases of user’s choice. The collected information can and should be used for analysis or investigation purposes in case of a cybercrime.
Unlike auditing solutions from other providers, the Sybase auditing solution from DataSunrise does not cause any performance or scalability issues and has no effect on database throughput and performance. One should keep in mind that database auditing is performed continuously, as this is the only way to ensure that a database security team (persons) are able to prevent any emerging security threats and identify suspicious activity and transactions that do not match the whitelist.
