ApexSQL

Here is ApexSQL in plain terms. Tools for SQL Server DBAs and Developers. Put simply, it is about assessing, monitoring and responding to security threats on your behalf.

Who is it for? Mostly companies without a full security team. Alongside the main category they mention Cyber Security and Data Visualization. They are a small team, 11 to 50 people, which usually shapes who they work with. Small vendors mean quick answers and real influence on the roadmap, but check who covers support when someone is out.

ApexSQL is based in Chapel Hill, North Carolina and around since 1998. More on apexsql.com.

Things worth asking about: response times, what is included in monitoring, and reporting. A short pilot with your real data tells you more than any demo.
