Extending Database Security - Protecting Information & Reducing Risk

Date & Time:  Tuesday 7 August 2007 2:45 PM

Data Security has been listed as one of CIO’s top 3 initiatives this year in a recent Forrester survey. The analyst firm Enterprise Strategy Group has estimated that as much as 54% of data that resides in databases is confidential and in 2006 alone there were over 300 breaches that involved millions of personal records. While data security is at the forefront of IT’s priorities, determining how to implement security policies that fully protect enterprise applications and reduce risk in today’s distributed environments is daunting.

In this session, we will discuss:

  • Sources for commonly overlooked security risks in your database environment
  • How combining data classification with database security, archiving and auditing can protect organizations from data breaches
  • Review a sample case study on how to deploy, enforce and audit consistent security policies across all database applications, including ERP and custom applications
