IBM Guardium Data Protection

IBM Guardium Data Protection is designed for organizations that need data discovery, activity monitoring, threat detection and compliance for sensitive enterprise data across hybrid cloud.

IBM Guardium Data Protection helps security and compliance teams discover and classify sensitive data, monitor activity and respond to risks across hybrid cloud and SaaS environments. IBM highlights continuous compliance capabilities such as tagging, prebuilt policies, workflows and long-term audit data retention. Real-time monitoring tracks data access, user activity and policy changes so teams can investigate suspicious behavior and focus on higher-risk events. Guardium Data Protection also supports cloud adoption through agents and agentless connectors and provides reporting for standards such as PCI DSS, SOX, GDPR and CPRA. Organizations can use it for data activity monitoring, compliance operations, sensitive-data protection, vulnerability management and investigation of threats such as SQL injection and data leakage.
