Hey guys!
Everything is fine with you, right?

In this post I would like to present to you something really different, which is a FREE Check-up of your database + security analysis, processes developed and carried out by the consulting team PowerTuning, specialists in the database area, using the best market practices, combined with day-to-day experiences of consulting with several large clients throughout Brazil.

How does this check-up work?

During this checkup, we will analyze your entire SQL Server instance and perform a quick general validation of the environment to understand the “health” of your database, seeking to identify better adjustments to SQL Server and Operating System parameters and configurations, validate backup policies, failure recovery systems, data integrity validation, best practices during instance installation that may not have been applied, level of OS and SQL Server updates and much more.

Speaking of Performance Tuning, we will validate how the cached plans are in the environment, signs of parameter sniffing, possible warnings in execution plans, unused, missing or duplicate indexes, memory configurations, parallelism, CPU affinities, good practices for allocating Tempdb and datafiles, counters, tools to help with performance analysis and several other validations on the health of the environment in relation to performance, which is a trademark of Fabrício Lima consultancy.

And the security part? Is this evaluated too?

Bringing a great market differentiator, we are including in our FREE check-up, more than 60 specific validations on data security, including permissions analysis, Surface Area protection, identification of possible entry points for malicious attacks, validation of accounts used by the instance's services, SQL Server update level, elevated permissions being used, validation of IMPERSONATE privileges, identification of weak passwords and users without a password change policy/passwords that do not expire, configurations that make it difficult attacks, like HideInstance, and more!

With the GDPR (Europe) and LPD (Brazil) laws, which will come into force within a few months, companies are increasingly seeking to improve the security of their systems and databases, to prevent attacks and information leaks, as we have seen in several cases in small, medium-sized and giant multinational companies. The LPD also includes a fine of 2% of the company's annual REVENUE (limited to 50 MILLION REAIS) in the event of a data leak, which is a strong motivator to invest in this area, which has been left aside for over a decade.

What is the final product of this checkup?

During the check-up you can still count on our excellent humor (lol) and at the end of the checks, we put together a complete report with the items for improvement and suggestions on how to resolve these items and we will send it to you. This is the result of our analysis and it stays with you. It's yours.

Everything I have mentioned so far, you will be receiving at a very cheap cost: ZERO.

After the check-up, am I obliged to hire the Consultancy?

After the check-up, you will receive our report with suggestions for improvement and we will conclude this activity with you. Feedback on what you think of our work is always welcome, but you are under no obligation to hire us, you can rest assured about that.

With this report in hand, you can deal with the improvement items we identified yourself and if you have any difficulties or need our support, we will be available to assist you with whatever is necessary.

And now, an advertisement 🙂
