Study Notes
- SQL Access Controls include the REVOKE command to revoke access rights.
- Cascading Authorizations allow access rights to cascade through users.
- Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) eases administrative burden and improves security.
- RBAC needs to provide capabilities for creating/deleting roles, defining permissions, and assigning/canceling user roles.
- Categories of database users include Application owner, End user, and Administrator.
- Inference is the process of deducing unauthorized information from authorized queries.
- Inference techniques include analyzing functional dependencies and merging views with the same constraints.
- Inference detection can be done by altering the database structure or by detecting violations during queries.
- Database encryption is the last line of defense in database security.
- Disadvantages of encryption include key management and inflexibility.
