Database Security in Datacenters In recent days Data centers contain a well-advanced equipment, including database servers, application servers, web servers, load balancers, telecommunications and storage systems, redundant power supplies, environmental controls, and security devices. Advanced devices are constantly being updated in the data centers as the electronic device usage is rapidly increasing, such as smartphones, that must be supported grows. Industries use automate the streamlining process for implementing new business processes, reduce operational costs, and further improve efficiencies. In regard of which they are trying to deliver models with latest technology upgrade services such as SAAS to drive down capital investments …show more content…
The cloud data streamlining is one of the major advantages of the recent world SOME OF THE BEST PRACTICES FOR DATABASE SECURITY IN DATA CENTERS THE FOLLOWING CHECKLIST* SUMMARIZES BEST PRACTICES FOR DATA BASE SECURITY. 1. The first and most important of any database is to get the best security guide lines and compliance objectives as part of the data warehouses or data centers design and to ensure a team of people are involved to maintain the security protocols and the type of data whether its inbound or outbound. All designed security controls should be customized for each module of data so that the data type and the security of the data is maintained all over the data center—united by a common policy environment. 2. Making sure the process that being taken will not limit the availability and the resources being managed which is the main reasons for implementing and investing the next- generation data centers. 3. It is most import to have the best security policy but when a user is able to maintain the complexity at the end of the day it will be a failure. So it is also important to implement and enforce the policies that are context, identity and application-aware for least complexity, and the most flexibility and scalability. It is very important that we can reuse the functionality across the system so that we don’t need to enforce lot of
The university should have the latest technology and antivirus to maintain the database servers from threats.
These days, people in the information technology world and in corporate are discussing facility of organization data and access on its website. For organization that gets it right, data will be able to release new organizational capabilities and value. Another topic in the technology world is Cloud computing. Cloud computing entrusts remote services with a user 's data, software, and computation. Cloud companies are already
internal and external users to whom access to the organization’s network, data or other sensitive
Each distributed DB perform some procedures to protect the data from any threats may occur through transactions. First is access control methodology which prevent unauthorized access to data. Second, inference control which prohibit users from inferring confidential data of other individuals using queries. Finally, flow control to prevent information from flowing to unauthorized persons in a way that violates organization policies.
Ensuring data security within your organization is crucial if you are to remain compliant against the increasing data security regulations, as well ensuring that you maintain a good relationship with your customers and prospects. Data security concerns the protection of data from accidental or intentional but unauthorized modification, destruction or disclosure through the use of physical security, administrative controls, logical controls, and other safeguards to limit accessibility. Protecting your customer information and ensuring full confidence in your data security measures will put you in good stead for protection against data loss and data security breaches. Data is the raw
Modern data centers and hardware that focus on energy efficiency, high availability, security and scalability to provide a physical infrastructure for our new IT vision to grow
The storage integrity and query integrity of a database are two of the most important functions that providers can offer, in addition to complex encryption and firewalls to provide additional security in the virtual environment. Each provider can offer a streamlined plan to implement a database solution along
Every few years corporate technology undergoes a transformation as new technologies come to market to meet the ever-changing business climate. One such change is hyper-converged infrastructure, a culmination and composite of several IT infrastructure trends, all of which provide value to today’s enterprise datacenter.
While access to sensitive data on the network is governed via “Access Control” (Refer to Chapter 7 on Network Security), you can assist with additional privacy to users by ensuring they adopt the following secure data communication & storage practices, provided these practices constitute approaches identified during the organization’s Risk Assessment (Refer to Chapter 1). Keep laws & regulations related to encryption in mind before recommending these best practices.
The days of data centers with separate racks, management tools for storage, servers and different networking infrastructure may soon be a thing of the
In conventional datacenters, there were two networks. One used for local area network which was built on Ethernet, was used by users to access applications running on servers. And the second one often built on Fiber channel, which connects servers to the storage module where mountains of data are stored. Both networks require huge capital investment, each requiring specialized hardware. Both networks have vastly different management tools, which require staff with different skill sets to build, maintain and manage. With the proliferation of datacenter, equipment density and power consumption became more critical than ever. Thus the cost of maintenance and total cost of ownership began to increase.
The international community is directly and indirectly connected through information systems and as such, instructions or frameworks are developed and under constant revisions in efforts to improve information security techniques. The first framework discussed that assists in improving information security techniques is that of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) 27002. The aforementioned framework is an internationally accepted standard that provides instructions for entities to map security protocols to regulatory and legal statutes (Wangwe, Eloff, & Venter, 2012). The ISO/IEC 27002 provides an entity with guidelines and recommendations to enhance security controls for the implementation of security controls. Although ISO/IEC 27002 only provides security control recommendations, it is only a subset of mandatory requirements set forth by ISO/IEC 27001, which summarizes controls for implementation. The recommended control measures of ISO/IEC 27002 cover topics such as information security policies, access control, asset management, business continuity, and information security incident management.

Database security is a critical Domain of Computer and Information Security that deals with protection of an individual database or group of database from illegal access, injections or possible destruction. Data can be a customer's information, intellectual property, financial asset or any number of other records that can be maintained and managed on a system. Without Database security people are at risk of identity fraud, theft, destruction of property and much worse. The global costs of such security breaches runs from over a billions of dollars yearly, and the cost to individual companies can be extreme, sometimes disastrous.

The twenty first century as the digital era offers a more accessible information and widely available anytime, hardware designers and software developers increasingly emphasize the way how the cloud computing shapes electronic hardware design and system dynamic control. The cloud can be described as an ecosystem, which contains applications and maintain computer?s resources. As the specific ecosystem it needs to meet particular requirement of an enterprise such as adaptability, quick response, extensibility and the security(1). This essay aims to discuss how cloud computing impacts on modern hardware and software applications. Firstly, this report examines the theory of cloud computing. Next, it discuss the impact of cloud computing on the infrastructure and how cloud computing is changing the way of software being built. Finally, it focuses on giving details about some potential risk that need to face and solutions which can help to create and bring a new revolution to hardware and software area in the future.
