Oracle Security for Web Developers
Oracle is a popular database backend for Web applications. Securing your Web applications takes careful planning and implementation at the client, application server, and database server levels. This podcast provides details on Oracle security so that developers can secure the database server as well as other parts of their application. Topics include tips on (1) securing application accounts in Oracle, especially with regard to roles and privileges, (2) locking down the database, including the database listener, tablespace controls, Virtual Private Databases (VPDs), utility packages, and (3) hardening the operating system to protect the database from OS level tampering. With several basic changes, developers and system administrators can have a significantly more secure database than that found with default installations.
