DataSunrise Security Connect July 2026

July 2026 DataSunrise Security Newsletter   Introducing DataSunrise 12.1   Hello Edward Lorilla, We're excited to introduce DataSunrise 12.1. This release brings a new audit deployment option for Microsoft SQL Server, extends Query Result Cache support to Oracle Database, adds active Security and Dynamic Masking controls for Salesforce, and DSPM Cloud Scanner Integration. Whether you need more flexibility in how you monitor database activity, want to reduce load from repeated queries, or are expanding protection for Salesforce data, v12.1 gives you more ways to secure sensitive information without changing how your teams work.     Here's what's new:       Microsoft SQL Server Agent Audit Support   DataSunrise 12.1 adds Agent mode support for real-time audit of SQL Server 2016 and later. The SQL Server Agent runs on the database host and captures SQL Server activity directly from inside the DBMS process, so applications can continue connecting to SQL Server without being rerouted through a DataSunrise proxy. This gives you another practical deployment option for database activity monitoring, especially in environments where changing application connection paths is difficult. In this release, SQL Server Agent mode supports real-time auditing only. Security Rules and Dynamic Masking are not included in the current Agent mode scope.   Learn More →       Oracle Query Result Cache Support   Query Result Cache support has been extended to Oracle Database. Oracle instances configured in Proxy mode can now cache repeated SELECT query results at the DataSunrise proxy level, helping reduce unnecessary database workload and improve response time for frequently executed read-only queries. The cache is configured per database instance and includes familiar controls for cache lifetime, memory limits, entry limits, maximum result size, and cacheable query length. You can also monitor hits, misses, stores, evictions, and hit rate from the Result Cache Rate page.   Learn More →       Security and Dynamic Masking for Salesforce   DataSunrise 12.1 expands Salesforce protection in Web Application mode with Security Rules and Dynamic Masking Rules. After configuring Salesforce through the DataSunrise web application proxy, teams can monitor Salesforce operations with Audit Rules, block or disconnect unauthorized activity with Security Rules, and mask sensitive data in Salesforce responses. Dynamic Masking for Salesforce supports information type-based masking, helping reduce exposure of personal, financial, and other regulated data returned through Salesforce workflows.   Learn More →       DSPM Cloud Scanner Integration   DataSunrise 12.1 adds DSPM integration with an external cloud scanner for cloud inventory and security posture assessment. DSPM can start a long-running scan, track status and progress, retrieve the generated report, and keep security findings separate from scan errors. The integration helps teams review cloud resources and security posture findings from DSPM, including report details and remediation guidance returned by the scanner. Raw reports can also be reviewed or downloaded for troubleshooting.   Learn More →       Plus, under the hood:   Google Cloud Bigtable instance creation via CLI with addInstance and addInstancePlus.   Expanded DSPM support for GCP Cloud SQL scan and protect workflows across PostgreSQL, MySQL, and SQL Server.   Faster metadata workflows for Snowflake and Databricks environments.   Data Discovery and Cloud File Discovery reliability improvements for storage, OCR, Avro, NFS, OneDrive, and SharePoint workflows.   Additional CLI automation for Traces Schedule, Risk Score periodic tasks, and MySQL/Aurora MySQL CloudWatch trails.   Security hardening for cloud discovery APIs, DSPM driver packages, credential handling, TLS validation, and internal cluster endpoints.   Parser, masking, and audit stability improvements across PostgreSQL, Redshift, Impala, Bigtable, ClickHouse, Snowflake, and other supported sources.       Recent DataSunrise Technical Articles   Data Obfuscation in Elasticsearch Organizations increasingly rely on Elasticsearch to index and search large volumes of operational, customer, financial, and security data. These datasets frequently contain personally identifiable information (PII), protected health information (PHI), payment details, API keys, and other confidential values that should not be visible to every user or application.

Organizations using Amazon DocumentDB often need to track database activity, monitor administrative actions, investigate security incidents, and demonstrate compliance with regulatory frameworks such as GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and SOX. Learn More →     Data Anonymization in Microsoft SQL Server Data anonymization in Microsoft SQL Server has become a critical requirement for organizations handling sensitive information across production systems, analytics environments, cloud workloads, development pipelines, and AI-driven platforms.
