Oxford, United Kingdom, April 27, 2010 -- Secerno, the technology leader in data security, today announced the availability of DataWall™ 4.2, which is the industry's first enterprise-ready data protection system, including the following features:
• The ability to set policies by client, application and domain or user name
• Support for the IBM Universal Database, which now extends relational database management system support to 11 platforms
• 10Gbit network support, giving busy corporate data centers an easy and fast way to manage high volume environments
• Further enhancement to High Availability (HA) deployment options to suit all data center architectures
The features of DataWall 4.2 comprise the level of data protection needed by today's CIO. Data protection needs to meet the level of activity on the extended enterprise network, which makes the 10Gbit network support and high availability deployment options critical elements for corporate protection. Having the ability to track and block activity based on user profile, domain name, application or program type is essential for enterprise security as cloud environments, social media and web 2.0 applications enter corporate life. A recent independent research report found that "inappropriate access by over-privileged employees continues to be a simmering security issue." ("Data Security Predictions for 2010," Forrester Research Inc. December 2009). With DataWall 4.2, only those employees with proper permissions will be allowed to access sensitive data.
"The volume of data combined with increased vulnerabilities from new applications and device types, makes enterprise security more difficult than ever before," said Steve Hurn, CEO of Secerno. "We had this threat environment in mind when we developed DataWall 4.2 to provide the most effective tool in the CIO's security arsenal."

I have always received the news of any kind of attack on Oracle databases with the gravest concerns and horror, irrespective of the security firm that discovers the hacks or the attempts. Oracle databases remain one of the most sophisticated repositories of data and sensitive information for enterprises and governments all over the world, therefore, every effort by Oracle Corp. to add another layer of security protection to prevent any malicious attack on its leading RDBMS software is a great delight. Securing databases, especially in the light of increasing security threats to both government institutions and enterprises' assets from several sources has become a paramount initiative, and Oracle again, has demonstrated great leadership here. I hope other Database IT Vendors and Enterprises will seize on this technology and Security initiative to do whatever is necessary to assure security protection for sensitive data and information in their databases. And, to the staff and Management of Secerno: Welcome on board of Oracle!
