Sarbanes-Oxley

Database Protection for Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance

Protect Data Against Breaches and Implement Audit Accountability Measures Effectively

Sentrigo’s Hedgehog™ database activity monitoring and intrusion prevention software allows publicly traded companies to safely demonstrate greater transparency in disclosing their financial data in compliance with Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) legislation.  This requires public companies to have effective controls in place.

The Sentrigo Hedgehog solution addresses company accountability by providing data protection and monitoring and reporting of database activity in real time, including access to financial and privileged user activity. Sentrigo also helps auditors by simplifying the audit process and making the generation of reports easy.
 

Sentrigo’s Key Benefits for Sarbanes-Oxley

• Wizard-driven template that quickly turns SOX requirements into actionable database protection policies
• Monitors all relevant financial activities in the database in real time, including local access by privileged users and memory based activity (e.g., stored procedures, triggers, views) for accurate and complete reporting transparency
• Accelerates regulatory compliance by providing auditors with detailed, relevant information and pre-defined or customized reports on access to financial data

Facilitating Accountability 

The Sentrigo Hedgehog solution ensures the integrity of sensitive data by monitoring activity on the database by privileged insiders and via external attempts to access data. It enables full traceability of data (audit trail) and the separation of duties (audit independence). Additionally, since financial data resides in sensitive databases, SOX auditors look for clear and easily verifiable ways to view database activity so that it can be easily interpreted and acted on.
 

Sentrigo Hedgehog provides QSAs and auditors with the tools to better meet the terms of the SOX compliance audit with wizards and reports. QSAs and auditors are able to set what is monitored and determine how it is tracked and reported.
