Database Security
Database security means implementing measures to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of data stored in a database system. As databases often contain sensitive and valuable information, securing them is critical to prevent data breaches, unauthorized access, and data manipulation.
In this chapter, we’re going to cover database security by looking at the following main topics:
- Overview of SQL
- SQL injection
- Correctness
- Concurrency
- Language-specific defenses
- RBAC security in DBMS
- Encryption in DBMS
- An example of enterprise DB security
By the end of this chapter, you will have a strong understanding of how SQL vulnerabilities can be reduced.
