Oracle Database Security

Contact SoftArt Solution to find out how we can help you reap the benefits of Oracle Database Security.  

SoftArt Solutions partners with Oracle to provide databases with robust security capabilities built right into the tool. It takes experience and expertise to implement and maintain these features effectively. Let us show you how this can protect your company from the reputational and financial ramifications of a data breach.

What Is Database Security and Authorization?

Sensitive information, including employee salaries and personal information, must be kept confidential. Access to this data should be on a need-to-know basis with very tight controls. DBMS Databases security and authorization systems are designed to prevent unauthorized access with robust capabilities that can segregate users by roles and groups.

What Types of Security Are Applied to a Database?

The various types and layers of information security control protect databases. These include:

  • Access control
  • Backups
  • Auditing
  • Authentication
  • Integrity controls
  • Encryption
  • Application security

What Are Oracle’s Database Security Capabilities?

Database security protects your company’s databases and sensitive information. Software solutions verify authorization and prevent unauthorized users from hacking into your IT network to distribute viruses and other malware they compromise your data.

Here are just a few examples of features that demonstrate Oracle’s commitment to security:

  • Advanced Security – including Transparent Data Encryption
  • Key Vault – Key Management for TDE
  • Database Auditing
  • Audit Vault and Database Firewall
  • Database Security Assessment Tool
  • Database Vault – Privileged User Controls
  • Label Security
  • Label Security – Mandatory Access Control
  • Real Application Security and Virtual Private Database
  • Data Masking and Subsetting
  • Data Safe

What Are the Important Features of Oracle Database Security?

Security is baked into Oracle tools on multiple levels. SoftArt Solutions provides security assessments to help you find personal and sensitive data in your database and assess whether the configuration adequately protects your company from ransomware. You can take advantage of Oracle’s auditing and monitoring functions. Centralized information and a built-in audit management repository give database owners a convenient way to collect, report and analyze risky or suspicious activities.

With Oracle’s data encryption and redaction, your Oracle database is always protected. Key storage and management handle regulatory and management requirements for a company managing several keys and wallets. Through data masking, Oracle contains security risk by substituting realistic looking artificial data in development and test environments.

Data access control mitigates the most common database attacks, which are compromised administrator accounts and stolen application-level accounts. With Oracle Database security, strong separation of duties exists between data management and database administration. Additionally, multifactor authentication supports strong control policies for individual security.

Is Oracle Database Encrypted?

SoftArt Solutions can implement Oracle database features that use authorization, authentication, and auditing to reduce vulnerabilities in the Oracle database. To protect the operating system files where data is stored, Transparent Data Encryption encrypts sensitive data.

Well-implemented database security blocks ransomware and firewall attack to keep your sensitive data far from prying eyes. Contact SoftArt Solution to find out how we can help you reap the benefits of Oracle Database Security.
