GRC Compliance

Service Summary

PES delivers governance, risk, and compliance services focused on database security. We perform Oracle DBSAT security assessments, implement database hardening, and deploy encryption at rest (TDE, Oracle NNE) and in transit (TLS). Our GRC approach aligns with SOX, PCI DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA, and NIST CSF 2.0 frameworks.

Note: The GRC strategies are recommendations based on Oracle security best practices and regulatory compliance frameworks. Every assessment is tailored to your database versions and regulatory regime.

DBSAT Assessment

TDE Encryption

Compliance

Key Capabilities

Database Hardening & DBSAT — Oracle Database Security Assessment Tool scans for vulnerabilities and compliance gaps
Encryption at Rest — Oracle Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) and Oracle Native Network Encryption (NNE); SQL Server TDE
Encryption in Transit — SQL Server Network Encryption, Oracle NNE, and TLS 1.2+ across all database connections
SIEM/SOAR — Integration with jSonar, Imperva, Guardium, and QRadar for security monitoring and automated response

Implementation Plan

Phase 1

Security Assessment & DBSAT Scan — Weeks 1–2

Run Oracle DBSAT, review vulnerability reports, assess current encryption posture. CSF: Identify ISO: A.8

Phase 2

Hardening Implementation — Weeks 3–4

Apply DBSAT recommendations: remove default accounts, implement password policies, audit logging. CSF: Protect ISO: A.9

Phase 3

Encryption Deployment — Weeks 5–7

Deploy TDE at rest, NNE/TLS in transit, key management (Oracle Wallet, Azure Key Vault). CSF: Protect ISO: A.10

Phase 4

Compliance Validation — Weeks 8–9

Map controls to SOX, PCI, HIPAA, GDPR. Generate compliance evidence and audit artifacts. CSF: Detect ISO: A.18

Phase 5

Monitoring & Audit Readiness — Week 10

SIEM integration, continuous monitoring, audit trail maintenance, quarterly DBSAT re-scans. CSF: Respond ISO: A.16

Why Businesses Will Benefit

Auditors don't accept good intentions — they demand evidence. PES builds compliance into your database infrastructure: DBSAT assessments with remediation playbooks, TDE encryption with documented key management, and SIEM integration with QRadar, Guardium, and Imperva. We map every control to your specific regulatory framework — SOX, PCI, HIPAA, GDPR, CCPA, or NIST.
