Dell Case Study
.

Thank you for your interest in this independent customer case study.

Safeguarding data is critical for many organizations, but auditing data access activity to comply with regulatory standards can be a complex undertaking.

As part of its initiative to simplify IT, the Dell IT group implemented the Guardium platform and database activity monitoring (DAM) technology to streamline compliance processes and protect more than 1,000 database servers distributed across 10 data centers worldwide..

Featured in Dell Power Solutions magazine, this article takes an in-depth look at how Dell wanted to replace its manual processes with an automated solution that monitored all databases and enterprise applications, including Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle JD Edwards®, Oracle Hyperion software, the Oracle database and Microsoft® SQL Server® on both Microsoft Windows® and Linux® operating systems.  The solution needed to:

  • Make only minimal overhead demands on the database server
  • Provide automated evidence for passing audit requirements
  • Be deployed without DBA expertise and without changes to the databases
  • Compare and report audit data with change tickets that were approved in the Dell change management system
  • Alert staff in real time on critical security events, such as brute-force password and SQL injection attacks
  • Provide separation of duties for privileged users, ensuring accuracy and integrity of all user and database activities and commands stored in the Guardium system
  • .
