You're in a client briefing and one of the attendees shares with

you the need to monitor both sensitive and non-sensitive data
in their environment. As you detail some success stories IBM
clients have had with Guardium in these environments,
another person in the meeting says, "You don’t really need
agents for data security. One-size fits all and agentless
monitoring is sufficient." What is the best way to respond to
this comment?

Flexibility is essential when it comes to monitoring, and

it’s important to understand your use cases before
selecting a monitoring mechanism.
One size does fit all and agentless is the only way to go.

You don’t need agentless monitoring; agent-based is

always the better approach.
If you want a solution that costs less to maintain,
agentless is the way to go.
