DB2 Audits

IBM DB2 is a widely used database management system that enables large scale data storage and retrieval. The foundation of database security is a deep understanding of the unique risks and controls associated with this critical IT infrastructure. An audit of production DB2 databases is essential to a good control environment.

Continental Audit Services uses a holistic audit approach that covers database integration with application, web and network infrastructure. Our audits are designed to add value through stronger security, better configuration and adherence to industry best practices.

Continental Audit Services provides experienced auditors at competitive rates. Our auditors have worked in some of the world’s largest technology environments including those of large financial services companies.

Some of the areas that we cover in our database audits are displayed to the right. Please contact Continental Audit Services to request a proposal tailored to meet your specific requirements.
