Many companies use enterprise change management systems that essentially act as the “control center” for changes made through the IT infrastructure. These systems are also used to govern changes made to the database. However, when it comes to confirming that the person who made the changes did not perform any unauthorized activity, most companies rely on the honor system. Increasingly, this is no longer regarded as good enough.

Fortunately, Mantra allows you to track database changes, reconcile them with authorized change control tickets, and send alerts when unauthorized and potentially malicious database changes are detected. Mantra change control enables more effective enforcement of policies that determine how and when changes to production databases are made.

With Mantra you can:

• Mark a database session with a change control ticket to determine what change was made, who made it, and when.
• Integrate with your existing change control system by simply inserting the change control ticket into the Mantra management center.
• Report on all changes that took place for a given change control ticket.
• Alert when unauthorized changes have taken place.

Mantra is a high performance, network appliance that continuously monitors both network and local data traffic to databases and file servers. Mantra is non-intrusive and has no performance impact on your production databases. Patent-pending Behavioral Fingerprinting® technology identifies anomalous or suspicious user behavior in real time, preventing unauthorized data access like data theft and core data breaches.
