Database Security
Database Activity Monitoring: Targeted Visibility into Sensitive Data Access
Sensitive data within enterprise databases is constantly exposed to risks from both external attacks and internal misuse. Traditional monitoring tools generate excessive alerts by tracking all database activity, making it difficult for security teams to identify genuine threats and respond in time.
Mage Data’s Database Activity Monitoring takes a smarter approach by monitoring only sensitive data access. Integrated with Mage Data’s patented discovery engine, it automatically identifies and tracks access to critical data such as PII, PCI, and health records. This targeted visibility reduces alert fatigue, provides clear and actionable insights, and enables faster threat detection, stronger compliance adherence, and proactive risk mitigation across production environments.
Key Capabilities
What is Database Activity Monitoring?
Sensitive Data-Focused Monitoring
Leverage our patented discovery engine to pinpoint and monitor access specifically to critical data (PII, PCI, PHI). Focus on high-value assets rather than every generic query to reduce alert noise and highlight genuine risks.
Flexible Alert Configuration
Configure granular alerts based on sophisticated user behavior and access patterns. Detect anomalies—such as bulk data exports or unusual after-hours access—to ensure immediate response to potential internal misuse or external breaches.
Secure Agent-Based Architecture
Built on a secure, lightweight agent designed for enterprise scale. Ensure comprehensive monitoring across high-volume production environments without degrading database performance or introducing latency.
Real-Time Dashboards and Visualization
Access near-realtime dashboards that provide an instant, visual overview of sensitive data access across your entire database estate. Monitor active sessions, track trends, and identify hotspots where sensitive data is most frequently accessed.
Audit Logging & SIEM Integration
Streamline security operations by consolidating immutable audit logs across diverse database types into a single source of truth. Seamlessly export actionable security events to your SIEM for centralized analysis and long-term regulatory reporting.
