Aurva Database Activity Monitoring
Sunnyvale, California, USA, with an office in Bengaluru, Karnataka, India
What it is
Aurva Database Activity Monitoring tracks queries from people, service accounts, and AI agents, and can block threats in real time. It links each query to the responsible actor and provides context such as role, application, and access path. For AI agents, it establishes behavioral baselines and alerts on activity that departs from normal patterns. Policies can control access according to identity, data sensitivity, location, and time, including blocking access or redacting columns. Aurva describes its architecture as passive and out-of-band: it monitors traffic without sitting in the query path and says this adds 0 ms of application latency. Deployment options include agent, agentless, combined, cloud, on-premises, and hybrid. Named data coverage includes PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Snowflake, BigQuery, DynamoDB, and Kafka, among other stores. Aurva says its audit logging and sensitive-data monitoring align with SOC 2 and ISO 27001 objectives. The product targets security-conscious organizations in regulated or sensitive-data sectors, including fintech, banking, insurance, healthcare, and SaaS. Pricing is custom, available on request, and based on cloud accounts, data sources, and selected modules.
