Granular data protection and detailed user web activity reporting have strengthened compliance
Maybe next year, we are looking for a user behavior analytics setup. We have budgeted for a user behavior analytics tool. We are looking for that. We are working with Azure mainly. AWS is in our roadmap. Forcepoint [Private Offer Only] cloud, we are using it. We have an agent that will connect. If I am connecting inside, it will connect to our in-house proxy, and if we are connecting outside, it will connect to the outside proxy, which is the cloud proxy. Our proxy appliance is in AWS, though I'm not entirely sure. I would rate my overall experience an 8.5.

Proactive server management has reduced incidents and saves time through automated health checks
One improvement area I identified is reducing manual operational work, such as health checks, file system monitoring, log cleanup, and path validation. I rated Oracle Linux 7 | Support by SupportedImages 8 out of 10 because I need improvements in automation. I recommend several important improvements. I would suggest moving new builds to Oracle Linux 8 or 9 and avoiding creating new long-term workloads on Oracle Linux 7. I should keep Oracle Linux 7 mainly for existing legacy applications while migration is planned. Another improvement I recommend is modernizing Oracle Linux 7 image lifecycle by not creating new Oracle Linux 7 workloads. I would standardize hardened golden images, automate patching and vulnerability scanning, and migrate applications towards Oracle Linux 8 or 9. For existing Oracle Linux 7 systems, I should maintain an accurate inventory and ensure extended support updates are being applied. This improves security, reliability, governance, and reduces operational effort.
