9️⃣ Security events automation

Being a gateway for data protection, Acra provides multiple ways to automate security reactions and decrease MTTD & MTTR. Observe, monitor and automate one product instead of multiple.

❇️ Acra’s security log is specifically pre-configured to be helpful to SIEM/SOC operators to build analytics and automation around security events.

❇️ Acra’s cryptographically signed audit log is designed to be verifiable: no one can simply change, add or remove log messages without notice. Automate log verification procedure and alert SOC engineers in case logs couldn’t be verified.

❇️ Poison records raise security alarms once they go through Acra. Generate poison records via Acra and put them into the database to the columns/tables/fields that authenticated apps shouldn’t read. If a malicious app or SQL injection reads these records, Acra catches them and triggers a reaction. Configure reactions—error response, fake data response or even shutdown of the whole Acra cluster.

❇️ Configure Acra Censor—SQL firewall—to deny SQL queries reading specific tables/columns or based on flexible rules. Setup monitoring on Acra Censor’s events to alert your engineers right away of someone knocking at your door.

🔥 As you see, Acra features cover different risks and threats while supporting each other in their mission. This multi-layered design allows you to turn your databases into real strongholds. See what other features work for your peace of mind in Acra.
