Secerno is the technology leader in data security and control. Its UK headquarters are in Oxford and its US headquarters in New York, New York. Its Secerno DataWall solutions are the new approach to controlling how data in databases is accessed. Secerno DataWall includes database activity monitoring, real-time data protection and data auditing and compliance solutions available as a range of either hardware or virtual appliances on the VMware platform. With Secerno DataWall, the company enables the organizations to stop database threats before data is lost or compromised (instead of simply monitoring and reporting after the damage is done). It accurately and actively blocks all threats to its customer's data, even from trusted and privileged users. It offers the highest levels of protection against these threats and optimizes compliance auditing, as well as delivering the ability to improve the security of applications. At the core of Secerno DataWall is the patented SynoptiQ Engine, based on break-through research into efficient grammatical clustering undertaken at the Oxford University Computing Laboratory. The SynoptiQ Engine uses Semantic Clustering to cluster queries automatically and intelligently into an Intent-Based Model of database environments. They are distilled into meaningful information for efficient human review and automatic generation of a zero-defect database policy that identifies with fine precision and total accuracy every kind of query that is allowed to reach each database - and specifies the actions to be taken on out-of-policy activity.
