Security in a relational database management system is complex, and too few DBAs, system administrators, managers, and developers understand how Oracle implements system and database security. This book gives you the guidance you need to protect your databases. Oracle security has many facets:Establishing an organization`s security policy and plan Protecting system files and passwords Controlling access to database objects (tables, views, rows, columns, etc.) Building appropriate user profiles, roles, and privileges Monitoring system access via audit trails Oracle Security describes how these basic database security features are implemented and provides many practical strategies for securing Oracle systems and databases. It explains how to use the Oracle Enterprise Manager and Oracle Security Server to enhance your site`s security, and it touches on such advanced security features as encryption, Trusted Oracle, and various Internet and World Wide Web protection strategies.
