The first problem is that it is network based. If it can access the
database, so can the bad guys.

Second problem is that it (possibly) does not address all interfaces
from which Oracle can be accessed. From your advertisement it sounds
like it only goes after Oracle on the publicly advertised ports that
Oracle hosts, and little else.

Any good network audit tool, coupled with good DBA work, and you are
already an Expert. (when you get 24+ years under your belt, like some of
us, call me..then again...at my age...I might be dead by then...)

So, please don't insult us. If you are lowering yourself to placing ads
in a newsgroup then I would have to wonder about the product.

If you want to advertise, do like us "experts" do -- write a white paper
that explains the methodologies of your "expert system". Then build
something that is better than that. Advertise in the 'zines we read,
show up at the BOF groups, hand out freebies at the various shows,
comment on solving peoples problems in the groups, just don't advertise
in a newsgroup.

Beyond that...good luck with your product.
