Oracle is using the RSA Conference this week to launch a database firewall designed to block suspicious traffic. Oracle Database Firewall understands SQL-statement formats and can be configured to blacklist and whitelist traffic based on source. The platform can also create compliance and security reports in a common format for security auditors checking on database defenses. Oracle sells a management server that reads all database firewall logs and can create aggregate reports. The management server costs $57,500 per processor of the firewall servers it oversees.”]
