Oracle Database Security Audit Training Course [ 2 Days ]
This course teaches the delegates how to confidently perform a security audit on an Oracle database. The course gets the delegates
up to speed on the reasons Oracle databases are invariably insecure. Everyone is brought up to the same level in terms of where to look,
what to look for and why. The course shows how a security audit is planned, how to prepare yourself for it, your staff and your environments.
The course is aimed at the fundamentals of how to review a database and why and does not focus on simply running tools. It is important
to understand why something is an issue, to understand how to check that its an issue and importantly understand the implications in respect
to your own databases and applications before using pre-built or commercial tools.
