Imperva boosts database security

Data security specialist Imperva has launched a new module for its database and web application security solution SecureSphere. The new module is designed to track and report on any external changes made to database objects.

The ADC Change Management Module for SecureSphere enables administrators to keep track of any changes that may occur to objects such as passwords by flagging up if any objects were added, removed or changed on the system, according to IMperva chief technology officer Amichai Shulman.

"It's an important piece of the entire database security," Shulman said. " It's not only a matter of your security being compromised but regulations often require you to control changes."

The product automates the entire process and produces compliance reports, Shulman added. It is available immediately.
