Correct Answer: D

Database Activity Monitoring (DAM) is the best solution to detect database management system compromises as it operates at the application layer. DAM is capable of monitoring and analyzing database activities, including those performed by privileged and malicious users, and generating alerts when suspicious activities are detected.

A DAM solution is a security tool that monitors and analyzes database activity for signs of compromise or malicious activity. It is designed to work at the application layer and can send alerts on attacks from both privileged and malicious users. A DAM solution can also have a very low false positive rate, making it an effective tool for detecting database management system compromises.
