abstract:Database security concerns the use of a broad range of information security controls to protect databases (potentially including the data, the database applications or stored functions, the database systems, the database servers and the associated network links) against compromises of their confidentiality, integrity and availability. It involves various types or categories of controls, such as technical, procedural/administrative and physical.
EMC, which owns a majority stake in VMware, installed Microsoft veteran Maritz as chief executive, and also hired Pat Gelsinger, formerly of Intel, as the head of the value-added software (like security and database analysis) that EMC puts atop its core storage business.
