Abstract:

The objective of this thesis is to analyse the effectiveness of database activity monitoring (DAM) tools in detecting security threats and vulnerabilities in company database systems. The thesis conducted a systematic review of literature from 2015 to 2023. The PRISMA guidelines were followed to ensure methodological transparency and rigor. The study identified 25 papers that met the inclusion criteria. The findings revealed that DAM tools can detect various security threats that compromise company database systems' confidentiality, integrity, and availability. These threats included unauthorized access and data breaches, SQL injection attacks. The study explored various DAM tools, focusing on IBM Guardium, Imperva's Secure Sphere, Oracle Audit Vault, and Database Firewall. These tools offered features like data protection and access control, real-time monitoring and alerting, security policy and compliance. Their real-time protection was crucial for immediate response to emerging security threats. The study concluded that DAM tools are effective in real-world security scenarios, providing valuable insights for organizations to strengthen their database systems against evolving threats.
