SQL Compliance Manager v5.0 released

SQL Compliance Manager is an auditing solution that uses policy-based algorithms to track changes to your SQL Server objects and data. It helps you determine who did what, when, where and how, whether the event was initiated by privileged users or hackers. SQL Compliance Manager also helps ensure compliance with regulatory and data security requirements such as SOX, PCI, GLBA, HIPAA (HITECH) and Basel l and II. It goes beyond traditional auditing approaches by providing real-time monitoring, alerting and auditing of all data access, selects, updates, schema modifications and permission changes to SQL Server databases.

Updates in v5.0

• Availability Group Support - Automatically switches the auditing from primary to the secondary replica in the event of failure as well as failback to primary when it comes back online. No loss of audit data trail in the event of failure.
• Tech Preview of new Web-based Dashboard - Newly designed web console offers quick views of key audit trail activities on SQL Servers from any web browser. Identify key compliance issues quickly and provide an easy access point to non-DBAs without giving access to the entire management console.
• Integration with IDERA Dashboard - Web-based views are also designed to work within IDERA’s Dashboard providing an integrated common console to use across IDERA products.
