Our take
What our shortlists say about the one we picked.
- Oracle Audit Vault and Database Firewall
Best for: Audit trails and a SQL firewall across mixed databases
It makes the list because it pairs audit trails with a real SQL firewall, so you can both prove control and stop bad queries. It runs on premises as a software appliance on your own hardware, which fits shops that keep databases in house. If most of your data has moved to the cloud, check how that model fits.
