23 May 2007
Breadth of Expertise will Help Hone and Bring to Market First Database Security Solution Focused on Defeating Insider Threat
WOBURN, Mass.—May 23, 2007—Sentrigo, Inc., an innovator in database security software, today announced the Sentrigo Advisory Board and its first three members. Prof. Peter Swire, Chris L. Sharp and Julian Dyke bring a combination of expertise in healthcare and privacy, the telecommunications industry and Oracle database security—a unique and invaluable combination that Sentrigo will draw upon as it introduces its database security software later this quarter.
Sentrigo’s software, currently available via the company’s early access program, is designed to help enterprises combat unauthorized database activities originating from privileged insiders, as well as from those outside the company.

“We’re delighted to welcome three individuals who are widely known and respected in their fields to the Sentrigo Advisory Board,” said Nathan Shuchami, chief executive of Sentrigo. “Each has made unique contributions that have shaped Sentrigo’s vision and our ability to quickly gain traction with our customer base. We’ll continue to build the advisory board to support Sentrigo in key technology areas and target markets.”
Distinct Areas of Expertise Strengthen Advisory Board
Professor Swire is the C. William O’Neill Professor at the Moritz College of Law of the Ohio State University. As chief counselor for privacy in the U.S. Office of Management and Budget from 1999 until 2001, Professor Swire was the White House coordinator for the 1999 proposed and 2000 final HIPAA privacy rule on healthcare data. He commented:
“Implementing information security audit controls continues to be a challenge for many healthcare organizations as more insiders are authorized to access records. In order to ensure privacy and security from these privileged users, the healthcare system will need to adopt new tools. Sentrigo’s solution is an early candidate to do that job well.”
Mr. Sharp, vice president of the mergers and acquisitions group at FLAG Telecom, brings substantial experience in telecommunications, networking and security. Before joining FLAG, he was general manager of MCI/Verizon Business Global Security Solutions and built the company’s first global security practice. Prior to his work at MCI, Mr. Sharp founded Premium Data Solutions. Earlier in his career, he helped create Qwest Communications from SP Telecom and co-founded Lipstream Communications.
”In the telecom sector, companies regularly gather vast amounts of operational and customer data in applications including billing, reporting, capacity management and CRM,” Mr. Sharp explained. “This creates a large ecosystem of often unprotected databases. Sentrigo’s end-to-end database security solution helps remediate internal or external attacks, along with the rapid, scalable deployment required by the enterprise.”
Mr. Dyke is an expert on Oracle clustered technologies and co-author of Pro Oracle Database 10g RAC on Linux and chair of the U.K. Oracle User Group RAC Special Interest Group. He regularly consults with blue chip clients worldwide on complex Oracle implementations. In his words:
“Sentrigo offers unique advantages in terms of performance and security—the most interesting being the easy configuration directly by a security team without the intervention of database administrators. Other key benefits include protection against attacks such as SQL injections and minimal impact on performance on the monitored targets.”
