Download or read book Implementing Database Security and Auditing written by Ron Ben Natan and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-05-20 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about database security and auditing. You will learn many methods and techniques that will be helpful in securing, monitoring and auditing database environments. It covers diverse topics that include all aspects of database security and auditing - including network security for databases, authentication and authorization issues, links and replication, database Trojans, etc. You will also learn of vulnerabilities and attacks that exist within various database environments or that have been used to attack databases (and that have since been fixed). These will often be explained to an "internals level. There are many sections which outline the "anatomy of an attack – before delving into the details of how to combat such an attack. Equally important, you will learn about the database auditing landscape – both from a business and regulatory requirements perspective as well as from a technical implementation perspective.* Useful to the database administrator and/or security administrator - regardless of the precise database vendor (or vendors) that you are using within your organization.* Has a large number of examples - examples that pertain to Oracle, SQL Server, DB2, Sybase and even MySQL.. * Many of the techniques you will see in this book will never be described in a manual or a book that is devoted to a certain database product.* Addressing complex issues must take into account more than just the database and focusing on capabilities that are provided only by the database vendor is not always enough. This book offers a broader view of the database environment - which is not dependent on the database platform - a view that is important to ensure good database security.

Download or read book Enterprise Cybersecurity written by Scott Donaldson and published by Apress. This book was released on 2015-05-23 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enterprise Cybersecurity empowers organizations of all sizes to defend themselves with next-generation cybersecurity programs against the escalating threat of modern targeted cyberattacks. This book presents a comprehensive framework for managing all aspects of an enterprise cybersecurity program. It enables an enterprise to architect, design, implement, and operate a coherent cybersecurity program that is seamlessly coordinated with policy, programmatics, IT life cycle, and assessment. Fail-safe cyberdefense is a pipe dream. Given sufficient time, an intelligent attacker can eventually defeat defensive measures protecting an enterprise’s computer systems and IT networks. To prevail, an enterprise cybersecurity program must manage risk by detecting attacks early enough and delaying them long enough that the defenders have time to respond effectively. Enterprise Cybersecurity shows players at all levels of responsibility how to unify their organization’s people, budgets, technologies, and processes into a cost-efficient cybersecurity program capable of countering advanced cyberattacks and containing damage in the event of a breach. The authors of Enterprise Cybersecurity explain at both strategic and tactical levels how to accomplish the mission of leading, designing, deploying, operating, managing, and supporting cybersecurity capabilities in an enterprise environment. The authors are recognized experts and thought leaders in this rapidly evolving field, drawing on decades of collective experience in cybersecurity and IT. In capacities ranging from executive strategist to systems architect to cybercombatant, Scott E. Donaldson, Stanley G. Siegel, Chris K. Williams, and Abdul Aslam have fought on the front lines of cybersecurity against advanced persistent threats to government, military, and business entities.

Download or read book Enterprise Cybersecurity Study Guide written by Scott E. Donaldson and published by Apress. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 737 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use the methodology in this study guide to design, manage, and operate a balanced enterprise cybersecurity program that is pragmatic and realistic in the face of resource constraints and other real-world limitations. This guide is an instructional companion to the book Enterprise Cybersecurity: How to Build a Successful Cyberdefense Program Against Advanced Threats. The study guide will help you understand the book’s ideas and put them to work. The guide can be used for self-study or in the classroom. Enterprise cybersecurity is about implementing a cyberdefense program that will succeed in defending against real-world attacks. While we often know what should be done, the resources to do it often are not sufficient. The reality is that the Cybersecurity Conundrum—what the defenders request, what the frameworks specify, and what the budget allows versus what the attackers exploit—gets in the way of what needs to be done. Cyberattacks in the headlines affecting millions of people show that this conundrum fails more often than we would prefer. Cybersecurity professionals want to implement more than what control frameworks specify, and more than what the budget allows. Ironically, another challenge is that even when defenders get everything that they want, clever attackers are extremely effective at finding and exploiting the gaps in those defenses, regardless of their comprehensiveness. Therefore, the cybersecurity challenge is to spend the available budget on the right protections, so that real-world attacks can be thwarted without breaking the bank. People involved in or interested in successful enterprise cybersecurity can use this study guide to gain insight into a comprehensive framework for coordinating an entire enterprise cyberdefense program. What You’ll Learn Know the methodology of targeted attacks and why they succeed Master the cybersecurity risk management process Understand why cybersecurity capabilities are the foundation of effective cyberdefenses Organize a cybersecurity program's policy, people, budget, technology, and assessment Assess and score a cybersecurity program Report cybersecurity program status against compliance and regulatory frameworks Use the operational processes and supporting information systems of a successful cybersecurity program Create a data-driven and objectively managed cybersecurity program Discover how cybersecurity is evolving and will continue to evolve over the next decade Who This Book Is For Those involved in or interested in successful enterprise cybersecurity (e.g., business professionals, IT professionals, cybersecurity professionals, and students). This guide can be used in a self-study mode. The book can be used by students to facilitate note-taking in the classroom and by Instructors to develop classroom presentations based on the contents of the original book, Enterprise Cybersecurity: How to Build a Successful Cyberdefense Program Against Advanced Threats.

Download or read book Application Level Security Management written by Michael Neuhaus and published by diplom.de. This book was released on 2005-04-25 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Today, more and more enterprises are developing business applications for Internet usage, which results in the exposure of their sensitive data not only to customers, and business partners but also to hackers. Because web applications provide the interface between users sitting somewhere within the World Wide Web and enterprises backend-resources, hackers can execute sophisticated attacks that are almost untraceable, aiming to steal, modify or delete enterprises vital data, even when it is protected by passwords or encryption. As recent viruses and worms such as Nimda, CodeRed or MSBlast have shown, modern attacks are occurring at the application itself, since this is where high-value information is most vulnerable. Such attack scenarios a becoming very problematic nowadays, since traditional network security products such as firewalls or network intrusion detection systems are completely blind to those malicious activities and therefore can not offer any protection at all. Modern protection mechanisms require more sophisticated detection capabilities in order to protect enterprises assets from such attacks now and in the future. Additionally web application security currently is a highly dynamic and also very emerging field within enterprises IT security activities. Therefore this diploma thesis aims to provide a strong focussed picture on the current state of web application security and its different possibilities to raise the overall security level of already implemented web applications and also of future web applications. Acting as a basis for further analysis, the currently most common web application vulnerabilities are described to get an overview of what a web application has to be protected of and where the root problems of these weaknesses are lying. Although these generic categories may not be applicable to every actually implemented web application, they may be used as baseline for future web applications. Armed with the background of the current vulnerabilities and their related root causes, a detailed analysis of currently available countermeasures will provide recommendations that may be taken at each of the certain stages of a web application s lifecycle. Since all further decisions generally should be based upon risk evaluations of specifically considered systems, a possible risk management assessment methodology is provided within the thesis. Controls and countermeasures are provided from an [...]
