GreenSQL

1. You'll be able to protect your databases in minutes

Installation is so simple that you won't need to read through a lengthy instruction manual. GreenSQL will be guarding your databases in practically no time.

2. Installation is transparent to your current applications

GreenSQL sits between the real world and your databases, filtering requests as they come in. There is no need to adjust existing applications other than forwarding traffic to the GreenSQL port and/or IP address, and therefore, no need to back them up before installing GreenSQL.

And if an incoming SQL statement looks suspicious and has to be rejected, GreenSQL will do so gracefully, without causing failure in the target application.

3. Your web application using MySQL and PostgreSQL databases will withstand SQL Injection attacks

The GreenSQL database firewall prevents SQL Injection attacks on the two most popular Open Source databases, MySQL and PostgreSQL – the only database firewall to do so.

GreenSQL is the ONLY solution (Open or Closed source) which provides a database firewall solution for the PostgreSQL database.

4. You won't be scrambling to solve problems on your own

GreenSQL provides professional consulting support for a small annual fee. Installations are as varied as the people who run them. Inevitably, changes in the real world require unanticipated responses, and unusual configurations raise questions.

The GreenSQL database firewall developers are now available to resolve your thorniest issues. Our intimate knowledge of the GreenSQL software and our vast experience fielding questions on a multitude of database firewall installations will save you valuable time. The small fee is well worth it.

5. You'll be in good company.

Over 25,000 copies of the GreenSQL database firewall have been downloaded in the 30 months since its release – more downloads than from any other database security provider. What more can we say?

6. GreenSQL does not require a dedicated server or additional hardware

The GreenSQL solution can be installed on the same server as the database itself. There is no need for costly hardware or an additional server with access to the database IP address.

7. Your client/customer confidential information will be secure from phishing forays

SSNs, credit card information, personal data – in fact all of the sensitive information stored in your MySQL and PostgreSQL databases – will be safe from unauthorized prying eyes. Now, when you promise privacy, you'll be able to keep your word.

8. Your reputation on the Web will remain unblemished

Using SQL injection and many other database based attacks, hackers can gain access to your web server and database console through a back door, root kit and many other techniques. Once in control, they can use your servers to do whatever they wish like sending spam and/or attacking other destinations from your servers. If this happens and you end up on a blacklist, you may find that your legitimate incoming and outgoing traffic is rejected. You'll lose sales, valuable channels of communication with your customers, and end up involved in lengthy, frustrating negotiations to get off the black lists. "Don't let it happen to you!"

9. You'll be in compliance with regulatory requirements

To be in regulatory compliance, you must demonstrate that you have taken reasonable measures to protect sensitive information from unauthorized access.

Installing GreenSQL does just that. It protects databases from SQL Injection and many other attacks, enforces security policies and alerts you when an unauthorized access attempt has been executed.

10. GreenSQL won't break your IT budget
