Databases play a critical role in any organization, holding most critical sensitive information such as financial records, customer information, trade secrets, and more. Database Security Audit is a critical component of an organization’s overall security strategy

Unlike other security audits such as application penetration testing or network security audits, which have a broader focus, a Database Security Audit is specifically focused on the security of an organization’s databases. By performing regular Database Security Audits, organizations can detect and remediate advanced threats and data exfiltration which may go unnoticed by other security audits.
