National Bank of Kuwait implements Guardium's enterprise security platform
Oct 16, 2008 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) --
National Bank of Kuwait has implemented Guardium's enterprise security platform to continuously monitor all database transactions in real-time, including actions by super users such as database and system administrators, development and testing staff, and other privileged users, including outsourced teams.
Guardium and StarLink have signed a distribution partnership to provide real-time database security and monitoring to the Middle East region.
Tamer Gamali, chief information security officer of National Bank of Kuwait, said: "We needed tighter internal controls over our critical Oracle- and Microsoft SQL Server-based financial systems. We considered solutions based on native database auditing, but Guardium gives us automated, real-time security alerts along with full visibility into all transactions without impacting database performance. It also provides a scalable, cross-DBMS audit architecture for handling the massive amounts of transactions in our large-scale heterogeneous data centers."
Nedal Ahmad, regional sales and marketing manager of StarLink, said: "We are seeing increasing demand for enterprise database auditing and real-time protection from organizations across the region. Given the strategic importance of safeguarding sensitive financial and customer data, our customers are looking for best-of-breed solutions that have been properly architected to address their needs both now and in the future."
