CIS SQL Server Benchmarks
Center for Internet Security
CIS hardening benchmarks for SQL Server 2016-2022. Configuration auditing against 100+ security controls. Automated compliance scoring.
● Audit Implemented
🛡️
DISA STIG Compliance
Defense Information Systems Agency
Security Technical Implementation Guide for SQL Server. CAT I/II/III findings detection. Required for U.S. government database deployments.
● Detection Implemented
🔐
AES-256-GCM Encryption
NIST FIPS 197 / SP 800-38D
All credential storage uses AES-256-GCM authenticated encryption. Connection strings never stored in plaintext. Key rotation support.
● Implemented
📋
NIST SP 800-53 (Select)
National Institute of Standards & Technology
Security and Privacy Controls. DPSMF implements relevant AU (Audit), AC (Access Control), IA (Identification), and SC (System Communications) families.
◐ Partial
Monitoring & Observability
📊
SQL Server DMV Coverage
Microsoft SQL Server
Comprehensive DMV-based monitoring: sys.dm_exec_*, sys.dm_os_*, sys.dm_db_*, sys.dm_tran_*. No extended events or profiler dependency. Minimal server footprint.
● Full Coverage
⚡
Least-Privilege Monitoring
Microsoft Security Best Practices
DPSMF requires only 5 permissions: VIEW SERVER STATE, VIEW ANY DATABASE, VIEW DATABASE STATE, SHOWPLAN, VIEW DEFINITION. No sysadmin, no write access.
● Enforced
🔄
OpenTelemetry Export
CNCF OpenTelemetry Project
Metric export in OpenTelemetry format for integration with Grafana, Datadog, Prometheus, and other observability platforms.
○ Planned
AI & Knowledge Integrity
🧠
Knowledge Provenance
AnswerPoint Intelligence
Every knowledge node traced to source with trust tier (1-5). SHA-256 deduplication. Semantic similarity detection. Conflict resolution audit trail.
● 5-Tier Trust System
🤖
Responsible AI Practices
Industry Best Practices
No auto-remediation — system advises, humans act. Full reasoning chain audit trail. Confidence scoring with experimental thresholds. User approval required.
◐ Ongoing
📜
ISO/IEC 42001
International Organization for Standardization
AI Management System standard. Framework for responsible development, deployment, and management of AI systems in production environments.
○ Planned
Security Philosophy: DPSMF operates on a strict least-privilege, observe-only principle. It connects to monitored SQL Server instances with read-only permissions and never modifies customer data or configurations. All recommendations require explicit human approval. The Knowledge Graph maintains full provenance for every fact, rule, and recommendation, enabling complete auditability of the system's reasoning.
