  • Overview


    The need for data and database security may seem obvious, but there are many difficulties to overcome in finding appropriate safeguards:
    - Information security professionals may not have experience with the intricacies of databases and the differences between the various platforms.
    - Database administrators may not have experience with the security and regulatory compliance implications of their day-to-day activities.
    - Management and the media seem to have focused primarily on solving perimeter and network security issues.

    Combine these issues with very real costs and performance trade-offs for implementing many data security controls such as encryption, and you end up with significant holes in your data security.
