Hi Dawn, it seems to me IBM only offers Guardium products for enterprise. I'm about to start a job as a Guardium security consultant in April and I'd like to know how I can get hands on experience with Data Encryption and Guardium Insights for free or at a low fee because my boss wants me to have hands-on experience when I start. Thanks. Also, when I try to sign in to the link you provided, it says it's invalid because I don't have an IBM address which I don't. How would I be able to access it?

You might want to try the Guardium Data Protection Foundations self-paced virtual course in Your Learning. It includes a lab environment you can use to perform the exercises in the course and explore Guardium. There is a fee for the course that offsets the cost of hosting the lab environment.
Good luck with your new adventure! I hope this helps,
Dawn

I wanted to share some exciting news regarding a new phase in my career journey. I have been an Oracle PL/SQL developer for over 16 years, during which time I've had the privilege of working on diverse projects and enhancing my skills significantly.
Recently, I have made the decision to transition into the role of an IBM Guardium consultant, driven by my enthusiasm for data security and my aspiration to broaden my expertise in this field. The prospect of working with Guardium's advanced capabilities and contributing to data protection has truly captured my interest.
In light of this career shift, I am reaching out to request your support and guidance. As I embark on this learning journey, I believe that hands-on experience and practical training will be key to my success. With that in mind, I kindly request information on how to obtain lab access to practice using IBM Guardium. Your assistance in facilitating this access would be immensely valuable to me.
Additionally, I am eager to learn from your expertise and insights. If you could spare some time to share your knowledge about IBM Guardium, offer advice on essential concepts, or suggest any resources that could aid in my learning process, I would be incredibly grateful.
I greatly appreciate your ongoing support and collaboration within our group. Your guidance has been instrumental in my professional growth, and I am confident that your input will greatly contribute to my successful transition to a Guardium consultant role.
Please provide information regarding lab access and guidance. Your assistance will undoubtedly set me on a solid foundation as I embark on this exciting new chapter.
