A database is an organized collection of structured information, or data, typically stored electronically in a computer system.
The purpose of a database is to keep your business organized and make information easily accessible, so that you can use it.
Database security covers a range of security controls designed to protect the Database Management System (DBMS). The types of database security measures your business should have include protecting the underlying infrastructure that holds the database such as the network and servers, securely configuring the DBMS, and the access to the data itself.
Safeguarding the data your company collects and manages is of utmost importance. Database security can guard against a compromise of your database, which can lead to financial loss, reputation damage, consumer confidence breakdown, brand loss, and non-compliance of government and industry regulation.
