Chapter 11 - Oracle Database Security
Securing an Oracle database environment requires more than just
issuing SQL grant and revoke statements. The information in this
section is by no means intended to be a thorough discussion of
securing an Oracle database installation. Rather, it is intended to
provide readers with a few helpful hints and tips that may protect
your environment from unwanted access.
If you need to tightly secure a particular
database environment, search the Internet for information using the
keywords "Oracle Security." You will find dozens of websites that
contain information on hacking and securing Oracle databases. Good
sources of information are data security consultancy websites. These
websites contain numerous presentations and documents on Oracle
security issues.
Protecting Data Requires
More than just Protecting the Production Database
If you remember anything from this discussion
on Oracle security, make it the next sentence. Experienced hackers
understand that they don’t have to hack into your production
database to access your production data.
