Oracle Database Users Lock Out Data Leak Security at Oracle OpenWorld - The Database Monitoring Gap
Oracle database administrators might claim to fear data breaches and talk big about security features, but not all employ the strongest data leak prevention practices. A survey of 316 Oracle database users by the Independent Oracle Users Group offers a window into the security concerns of Oracle database administrators and the database security and data leak prevention tactics in use. The Oracle OpenWorld user conference Sept. 21 to 25 shines a light on Oracle database security features and practices.
Database monitoring is a way to ensure compliance with regulations and access policies, yet many respondents said they have super-users who escape database monitoring efforts. In addition, only 39 percent expressed confidence that those super-users could be prevented from abusing data.
