This Imperva whitepaper outlines how relying on built-in database auditing tools drains IT budgets through hidden costs in hardware, storage, labor, and security risks. Native tools require 20% more server capacity, generate massive audit logs, and demand extensive manual labor—yet still fail to ensure compliance or detect suspicious behavior. Imperva SecureSphere offers an automated, efficient alternative with lightweight agents and intelligent auditing, reducing total ownership costs by up to 80%. The paper includes a detailed TCO comparison and real-world case study showing millions in IT savings.
