Case Study: Database Monitoring for a Financial Institution

Business Challenge

Databases are at the core of an organization’s business and unauthorized changes to their structure and data can lead to significant losses.

Large organizations usually have many types of databases accessible by different administrators. If their actions are not securely logged, they can modify critical elements of the database that hurts the business. And existing SIEMs aren’t always able to collect the audit logs in a useful way.

Solution

LogSentinel SIEM was integrated with all databases of a financial institution to provide audit log collection and monitoring.

The visibility and immutability provided by audit trail allow the financial institution to be confident about the business continuity and to be compliant with mounting regulations.
