# Data security for multicloud, hybrid, and on-premises Achieve data management at high levels of scale with centralized policy controls with Imperva Data Security Fabric ## Coverage capabilities for comprehensive data security Strengthen cyber defenses across your entire database environment, on-premises, and in the cloud all from a single, easy-to-use platform ### Purpose-built for adaptability Natively integrates with on-premises and cloud services to meet the diversity and dynamics of all databases in your estate. Our hyper-efficient architecture is incredibly easy to deploy and scale as your needs change and grow. ### One platform, any database The industry's most complete platform support for cloud databases. Out-of-the-box Imperva natively integrates with over 100 database services with new data repositories added on a regular basis. ### Unify diverse environments Get a normalized view of all data access activity regardless of what database it takes place in. Security, compliance, and privacy controls are centralized, reducing the time, effort, and expertise required. ## Scale data security wherever data resides As your data footprint grows, so does the list of services you’re being asked to support. The elasticity of cloud databases compounds the challenge of maintaining oversight for your security teams. Imperva Data Security Fabric (DSF) provides state-of-art data activity monitoring that spans hybrid environments. Imperva DSF can also seamlessly integrate with your existing on-premises data monitoring implementation while allowing you to expand security and compliance to cloud databases that may not be covered. ## Agents and agentless: Better together In your effort to collect data access information from your data repositories to apply security controls, you don’t have to make the black-and-white choice to go with agents or an agentless approach. If your organization is like most, your data repositories feature a mix of modern and legacy systems yet have the same reporting, compliance, and security requirements across all systems. You need the ongoing ability to collect data with the most negligible impact on business processes. Imperva’s flexible options of agent and agentless provide the right tool at the right place regardless of an organization’s mix of new vs. old data repositories and offer the best of both worlds. ## When agents make sense Where your data repository’s logging facility impacts performance to an unacceptable level–mostly on-premises systems like IBM z/OS Db2, IMS, and other data repositories–agents offer an alternative native logging process. While this approach does require software installation and maintenance, the impact on the performance of collecting data access logs will be negligible. In these instances, using agents works well. ## When agentless makes sense In dynamic cloud environments, agentless auditing is critical to reduce costs, unlock visibility, and accelerate the speed of deployment. Agentless auditing leverages the database’s native auditing functions and has evolved to deliver very detailed information to meet audit and security requirements with very low CPU overhead. ## Imperva DSF secures your data in AWS enterprise data lakes Imperva Data Security Fabric (DSF) enables enterprises to protect their sensitive data in Amazon Web Services (AWS) enterprise data lakes and helps demonstrate data compliance. Imperva DSF enables AWS customers to see and secure their sensitive data through a single comprehensive platform and leverage a unified security model across Amazon Aurora, Amazon Redshift, Amazon Relational Database Service (RDS), Amazon DynamoDB, Amazon Athena, and AWS CloudFormation without requiring any changes to their existing data infrastructure.

This whitepaper explores the data security challenges that every enterprise confronts when moving workloads to the cloud. You’ll get insight into the fundamental differences and complexities that cloud platforms bring to the data security landscape. You’ll learn how and why the benefits that moving workflows to the cloud offer are also the reasons why traditional database monitoring and reporting solutions are not viable in cloud environments.
