SQLsecure 2.0 database security software automates the configuration and management of SQL Server security.
Idera's SQLsecure 2.0 speeds up the complex interaction of security settings and user access controls within SQL Server by quickly and precisely analyzing the entire state of your SQL Server security.
It collects and analyzes permissions data from SQL Server, Active Directory, the file system and the registry to display who has access to certain database objects and how that access is granted.
SQLsecure 2.0 also monitors changes made to access rights, insuring that any faulty directives given can be quickly reversed or corrected.
This newest release extends SQLsecure's comprehensive set of analyses to include Windows operating system components and adds built-in policies to measure compliance against data security regulations such as Sarbanes-Oxley, PCI DSS, GLBA, HIPAA, BASEL II and The Patriot Act.
