IDERA, provider of management and administration solutions for Microsoft Windows Servers, today announced SQLsecure 2.5, the company’s security analysis solution.
According to the company, the new solution helps database administrators (DBAs) identify and track SQL Server security issues in order to ensure compliance with corporate security audit requirements.
SQLsecure collects permissions data from SQL Server and Active Directory as well as the file system and registry settings to report on who has access to what and how that access is granted.
The new solution monitors and analyses changes made to access rights to ensure that integrity is maintained and security holes are not created. It also collects and evaluates key security settings within SQL Server and provides recommendations to improve server security.
According the company, the new solution provides DBAs with a single point of control to manage collection rules, policies and to view risks and access rights.
It also helps companies to comply with corporate and government policies by allowing DBAs to produce reports commonly requested by auditors. Reports may be scheduled or generated on-demand.
