Database Security Basics

Why Database Security Matters

A database holds an organization's most valuable data. Security protects it from unauthorized access, theft and corruption.

Key Security Measures

  • Authentication — strong passwords, separate user accounts.
  • Authorization — least-privilege GRANTs.
  • Encryption — protect data at rest and in transit (SSL).
  • Prepared statements — prevent SQL injection.
  • Backups — recover from attacks or failures.

Summary

  • Security = authentication, authorization, encryption, injection prevention, backups.
  • Give minimum privileges and always use prepared statements.
