Yves Moro

Oracle Database Administrator at SOCITECH S.A.

Provides good security, and is helpful for auditing the data and seeing what's happening

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. I use it only for security purposes, and they can continue to improve it with more security tools and features. It should be powerful like FortiGate. When it becomes powerful like FortiGate, people will only go for this solution for their infrastructure. Their support could be faster.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:

Pros

"Technical support is perfect."

"It has reduced the stress of collecting database event logs in silos from each database."

"This solution acts as a complete data warehouse for our audit data."

"Our client was scheduled to take a year and a half to set up compliance, but by deploying this product they were able to do the compliance reports within three months."

"The critical event alerts and reporting features have greatly reduced loss of man hours that would have been spent on going through the whole audit event logs."

"It has provided us with a unique opportunity to automate risk discovery."

"All of the other components that make up the infrastructure in the environment including the operating system are also quite valuable."

"The feature that I have found most valuable is that it can help us secure our databases."

More Oracle Audit Vault pros

"The most valuable feature for our customers is the restore functionality."

Cons

"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."

"Some of our customers were asking about latency when the application wants to get to the database."

"One feature that is missing is the ability to have a secret server that is always encrypted."

"They should simplify the integration and work with different vendors and mechanisms."

"The product monitors only the database and not the operating systems."

"An easy, friendly user interface would be nice to have, since this would enable administrators to identify important events with a prompt response."

"Customized reporting is something that we are struggling with, and it is quite tough for us."

"The performance of Oracle Audit Vault could be improved, especially in handling large data collections and generating reports on time."

More Oracle Audit Vault cons

"The anonymization feature can be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Oracle can be an expensive solution depending on the options and user needs."

"This solution is definitely not expensive, and it is a small fraction of the overall database licensing costs."

"The licensing cost is about $360,000, annually."

"For the bank, the license was $48,000 last time. That was the licensing for the bank on just one license."
