Information Governance with IBM InfoSphere Optim and InfoSphere Guardium

With every new application deployment comes a new data source that may or may not contain sensitive or confidential data. If data volumes or potential vulnerabilities are left unmonitored or unmanaged, the downstream impact could be catastrophic. IBM's InfoSphere Optim and IBM InfoSphere Guardium solutions manage data over its entire lifecycle through archiving, test data management, and application retirement while ensuring security and privacy via automated detection of sensitive data, database access and activity monitoring and prevention, and data masking and encryption. When both are deployed as part of an overall data governance initiative, the combined offering may deliver peace of mind with a better return on investment.
