Database Activity Monitoring (DAM)

Snare’s Database Activity Monitoring (DAM) via our Microsoft SQL (MS SQL) agent helps identify and report on anomalous database activity behavior, with minimal impact on user operations and productivity. It allows customers to effectively monitor SQL activity within a single database or an entire instance that covers multiple databases. Specific settings can be used to collect information on a specific database, tables with sensitive data, or specific commands run in the database.

This reduces the noise of general monitoring of all user activity on the SQL environment. The Snare MS SQL agent works on all current versions of SQL server on Windows platforms, including complex enterprise environments.

Why go with the Snare MS SQL Agent?

Reduce the noise from MS SQL
Allow for true Separation of Duties (SoD)
Ensure hackers are not using stolen credentials
Data masking of sensitive data PII, Credit Cards, etc…

Masking Sensitive Data with Database Activity Monitoring via our MS SQL Agent – How to Configure

Watch this technical video on how to configure data masking when monitoring SQL databases inside our MS SQL Agent.

“I tend to use Snare when customers have a lot of end points, 1,000 or more though particularly over 10K windows end points and they know they want to monitor each and every one of them. I know Snare will report in every time, all the time, even in large scale environments. Snare is well documented and easy to install. Snare also does encryption from the agent to the QRadar host, which is very important for most organizations, though in particular federal customers.”

Snare Capabilities

Database Activity Monitoring
Effectively monitor SQL activity within a single database or an entire instance that covers multiple databases.

File Integrity Monitoring (FIM)
Many regulations require the addition of a checksum to detecting file changes, and file permission changes, such as PCI DSS that require the change detection tools be run at least weekly.

Registry Integrity Monitoring (RIM)
Similar to FIM, performing a checksum and tracking the permission changes on the registry is important for identifying changes to key parts of the windows configuration and applications.

Multi Destination
Unlimited destinations for logs being sent with different ports, protocols, and formats for each destination. Get the right data, to the right people, at the right time.

File Activity Monitoring (FAM)
Find out who is doing what to your files and when. Who opens, reads, deletes them, and are they supposed to? A critical component to most compliance policies such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, FISMA, ISO27001, NIST, etc.

Registry Activity Monitoring (RAM)
Most applications maintain their configuration in the registry on Windows platforms. Being able to detect unauthorized changes to an application from changing key registry values is an important forensic tool in determining if the change resulted in unauthorized application activity.

Enterprise Grade
Heartbeats, self-audit, audit policy, data enrichment, data masking, and EPS controls. Windows Agents Veracode Verified. No Java or .NET required.

USB Drives
Tracking removable media and its usage on systems is important for data exfiltration and potential sources of malware and other malicious activity. It is important to track the device activity and if the media was something like a thumb drive or Rubber Ducky device that can be used to steal data or write malware/exploit at 3,000 characters a second and then execute it on the system as the user that is logged-in on the system.

24/7 Support
Around-the-clock, regionalized support.
