Kron Database Access Manager vs Lopam.AI Database Activity Monitoring

Kron Database Access Manager is a paid, hybrid database security product that centralizes access control, query policy enforcement, activity monitoring, and audit reporting. Its SQL Proxy routes database queries through a control point that captures activity and applies rules while allowing users to keep their existing database clients and standard protocols. Administrators can restrict sensitive data access, discover items such as credit-card and personal-ID numbers, and apply dynamic masking to filtered results. Listed database platforms include Oracle, MSSQL, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Couchbase, Teradata, Cassandra, SAP HANA, and Hive; MongoDB support was added to the SQL Proxy in Kron PAM 3.9. SSO and MFA through the Kron JDBC Driver are listed for MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, and Microsoft SQL Server. Session and query logging support compliance needs, and persistent logging failure causes the proxy to stop accepting new connections. Kron was founded in 2007 and is headquartered in Istanbul, Turkey. Pricing is available on request, and multitenant features require a Data Access Management license.

Lopam.AI Database Activity Monitoring provides query-level visibility, anomaly detection, access governance, and compliance reporting for databases. It tracks queries, transactions, and operations as they occur, then uses machine-learned baselines to identify unusual activity. Administrator and service accounts are monitored, with least-privilege enforcement described as part of the product. AI agents and automated workloads accessing databases are tracked separately. Investigators can replay sessions query by query, while alerts are ranked by assessed risk. Scheduled reports cover PCI-DSS, HIPAA, GDPR, and SOX. Listed database support includes PostgreSQL, MySQL, Oracle Database, SQL Server, MongoDB, and MariaDB; custom integrations can be discussed with the company. Lopam names Splunk, ELK, and QRadar among its SIEM integrations and says it connects with more than 10 SIEM platforms. The homepage claims real-time monitoring with millisecond precision and capacity above 10 billion events per day, plus automated reporting across more than 15 frameworks. The product is listed for on-premises deployment, with pricing available on request.
