IBM Netezza Compliance Management

IBM Netezza Compliance Management

Effective compliance management within IBM Netezza involves safeguarding sensitive data, ensuring regulatory adherence, and providing robust auditing capabilities. Compliance can be managed through IBM Netezza's native features or significantly enhanced with DataSunrise’s advanced solutions.

Native IBM Netezza Compliance Management Tools

IBM Netezza provides built-in tools for basic compliance management, suitable for initial compliance requirements but limited in scope.

Auditing Database Activities

IBM Netezza tracks database activities using its query history logging, allowing administrators to monitor user queries and interactions. This aids compliance efforts by enabling regular review and analysis of database access and activities.

Example query for auditing:

SELECT * FROM query_history WHERE submit_time > CURRENT_DATE - INTERVAL '1 day';

Native Dynamic Data Masking

IBM Netezza natively offers encryption-based Dynamic Data Masking, effectively obscuring sensitive data dynamically and providing basic protection.

Example native masking implementation:

CREATE VIEW nz_masked_vw AS
SELECT
  usr_id,
  usr_login,
  usr_email,
  '****' || SUBSTR(usr_phone, LENGTH(usr_phone)-3, 4) AS usr_phone_masked,
  SUBSTR(usr_card, 1, 4) || '-****-****-' || SUBSTR(usr_card, LENGTH(usr_card)-3, 4) AS usr_card_masked
FROM nz_sensitive_data;

SELECT * FROM nz_masked_vw;

These native tools, while practical for basic compliance, require manual maintenance and have limited adaptability for advanced regulatory needs.
