You can implement database encryption on the databases to control people's access to the database content, such as rows and tables."

"One feature that is missing is the ability to have a secret server that is always encrypted."
"The product monitors only the database and not the operating systems."
"Stability could be improved, we have had some challenges"
"I hear from many people that say IBM Guardian is better than Oracle Audit Vault when it comes to performance. IBM Guardian works transparently in the database, but Oracle Audit Vault consumes some ratios on the server."
"Currently, you need two servers: one for Audit Vault and one for the firewall. If they can combine them into one server, it will be great because it is costly to have two servers. It will also make its installation easier. I have heard that in the new version, there will be only one server for both."
"Some of our customers were asking about latency when the application wants to get to the database."
"Customized reporting is something that we are struggling with, and it is quite tough for us."
"The support could improve."
