Course Overview

Delegates will learn how Oracle is built and understand what the various categories of user do on the database and the risks they carry. Hands on labs will show the students how to scan the system for objects, especially sensitive tables, and to find out who can do what to them. Furthermore, in this age of web technology, the concept of the authenticated user accessing parts of your data is passing away.

Audience

This course is for security specialists and auditors who are aware their businesses use Oracle based products, but do not understand the database platform and therefore the risks it may carry.
