Overall Satisfaction with IBM Security Guardium

IBM Security Guardium is a great software being used in our organization. This is being used as a data activity monitoring tool and makes our life easier with an option to audit the activities of each individual user. Overall it is helping us to meet the compliance obligations to reduce the security threats.
  • Auditing of data can easily be centralized.
  • Automation of data monitoring reports.
  • It is scalable and effectively monitors the users for any suspicious activity.
  • It would have been great if this tool was more customizable.
  • The User Interface is a bit laggy and old fashioned.
  • It took ages for the proper deployment of this tool- could be made a bit easier and more efficient.
  • The compliance and risk management have been improved.
  • Processes have become more efficient due to automation.
  • Cost Reduction and better Business Outcomes.
It might look complex in the beginning but once you get hold of it by going through all of the documentation then it seems to be very smooth. The configuration is comparatively easy and the user can understand it on their own without any external help. The overall learning curve is Ok.
IBM Security Guardium has done an amazing job of assuring us about data security. We get the alerts on time if there is any suspicious activity and reports are also automated to serve us in a better way.
