IPLocks Awarded US Patent “Method and Apparatus for Monitoring a Database System”
Patent Allows for Monitoring Database Systems from External Applications SAN JOSE, Calif., Aug. 15, 2006 — IPLocks™, a leading provider of database security and compliance solutions that protect business critical information, today announced the award of a U.S. Patent for its “Method and Apparatus for Monitoring a Database System.” This invention permits monitoring database systems from an external application or apparatus. “We are pleased that IPLocks has been granted such a distinctive and one of a kind patent,” said Adrian Lane, CTO of IPLocks. “This technology enables IPLocks and our customers to determine the integrity, authenticity and accuracy of the data, and database usage. While database vendors have offered a type of this service built into their product, we are the first to provide an independent third party service to monitor heterogeneous databases. We feel that gathering data from the database server and not the network is fundamentally the right choice.” IPLocks is the only comprehensive database security solution that assesses for vulnerabilities, monitors user behavior and provides an independent audit trail to support regulatory compliance. The IPLocks solution also supports the widest range of database platforms including IBM DB2, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase and Teradata.
