  • 1.  Why my alerts/violations showing broadcast address from my imperva dam console

    Posted 21 days ago

    Hi,

    Im having alerts/violations that is showing Source IP and destination IP as 255.255.255.255. I analyze the alert/violations it's seems that it is running a schedule activity within the DB server. May I check in what situation will the DAM agent capture 255.255.255.255?

    Is there a way to rectify this alert/violation is coming from the server actual IP?

    Connection: 255.255.255.255 > 255.255.255.255

    DB Application: microsoft sql server management studio

    Operation: backup database

    Normalized Query: declare query

    #databasesecurity

    #ImpervaAgent

    #DAM


    #DatabaseActivityMonitoring
    #ImpervaAgent

    Hi Agustin,

    IP 255.255.255.255 is a restricted broadcast address and such behaviour is noticed for MS SQL databases whose activity logs in the DAM show IP 255.255.255.255 as both source and destination. It was fixed in the agent version v14.4P40.

    Hi Agustin,

    Then in that case please raise a support ticket to know the root cause.

    Also, please check that the build version of MS SQL Server is supported as per attachment of the KB article: https://docs-cybersec.thalesgroup.com/bundle/z-kb-articles-knowledgebase-support/page/290718678.html
