Sentrigo Announces New Technique to Combat Zero-Day SQL Injection Attacks on Databases

[From Sentrigo, Inc.]

Hedgehog, which directly monitors the database’s memory, is the first product to examine the context from which the SQL statements originate, the types of commands used and the database access privileges of the user. In this manner, Hedgehog is able to identify SQL injections that are missed by tools that only track signatures of known injections.
