Why database security is critical

  • Mitigate risks from misconfigured databases

    Databases are complex systems with hundreds of parameters, profile options, and configuration directives—an almost infinite combination of settings. A misconfigured database increases the risk of an exploit that gains unauthorized access. Oracle security solutions assess risks from security configurations and users and identify areas where those risks can be mitigated or eliminated.


  • Render stolen data useless

    Hackers can steal clear-text database data directly from the database, storage, exports, or backups. Most data privacy regulations require or encourage masking or encryption of data at-rest and in-motion. Oracle AI Database offers comprehensive encryption, key management, and masking capabilities that scale to enterprise-level workloads.



  • Restrict unauthorized access by privileged users

    Privileged users manage databases, but should all of them be able to access sensitive data? Reduce data breach risk from hackers or misuse of insider trust. Enforce separation of duties and prevent data theft, even from accounts with compromised passwords. Use context-sensitive security policies to control sensitive database options.



  • Monitor access and demonstrate compliance

    A breach can be blocked or mitigated if inappropriate access attempts are detected quickly. Audit database activities and monitor SQL queries in real-time. Use built-in and customized reports to address compliance requirements.
