Mantra Features Reduce the Cost of Compliance

Mantra is the first product designed specifically for high-performance database monitoring and auditing. Unlike firewall-based solutions, Mantra's architecture balances sophisticated policy filtering, analytics and reporting capabilities with an intuitive user interface and policy language. This functionality enables rapid deployment across relational databases and data stored on file shares. Mantra's innovations include:

--Behavioral Fingerprinting® – Mantra automatically identifies suspicious behavior in real time, eliminating the need for complex baseline policies which generate volumes of false positives.

--3-Way Auditing – Mantra is the only product to support all three modes of database auditing: network, agent and agent-less. Companies can choose the approach that works best for their environment.

--Scalability – Mantra is the most scalable as well as the fastest solution on the market and can support the largest data centers.

--Content Scanning – Mantra scans and locates any type of sensitive or regulated data and includes in-the-box scanning policies for locating cardholder numbers from all of the major credit card companies including Visa, MasterCard, Discover Card and American Express.

--Unstructured data – Mantra is the first product to provide a unified auditing solution for monitoring and auditing unstructured data.

New Mantra 5.9 highlights:

--User Interface (UI) enhancements– With its enhanced UI design and functionality, Mantra is now even easier to use and maintain enabling "Day One Productivity.”

--Policy Creation Wizard – Mantra's Policy Wizard walks the user through a set of steps to define and automatically deploy compliance and security policies in minutes.

--Change Management Wizard –Using this tool, enterprises can automatically monitor all database changes that would be integrated and reconciled with enterprise change management systems to ensure only approved changes are made to the database.

--Global Policy Management – Mantra can now automatically create global policies that define rules and activity across all policies for greater management flexibility.

--Expanded Analytics Performance – Mantra's Behavioral Fingerprinting can now scale to support the largest datacenters to prevent data breaches in real time.

--Enhanced Hardware Platform – The Mantra appliance has been enhanced to provide additional options for connectivity to multiple network-switches.

--Software Collectors – Mantra E-TAP Agents can now be used to collect local and network traffic offering a simple and cost effective solution for auditing branch offices or remote sites where an appliance cannot be deployed.

Market and Tizor Momentum

Tizor continues to experience rapid growth, expanding its customer base by 400% in the last year including very large deployments in enterprise data centers. Market demand for data discovery led to the creation of the Tizor Discovery Service, launched earlier this year, which pinpoints the location of sensitive data, including PCI cardholder data, and provides a detailed assessment of a company's actual data practices – essential for addressing risk to critical data assets.

According to the February 2008 Forrester report The State of Enterprise IT Security Adoption: 2007 by Jonathan Penn which surveyed over 1000 decision makers at North American and European enterprises, 82% of the respondents said that "protection of customer data” is an important business objective in the next 12 months (survey fielded duringQ3 2007).
