MySQL Security Enhancements and Important Security Tips for ISVs & OEMs

The data generated by your application may be one of your customers’ most valued assets. Keeping their data safe and compliant with standards such as HiPAA, Sarbanes-Oxley, and PCI Data Security has been made easier with three recently released MySQL security capabilities, including:

• MySQL Enterprise Security, which includes external Authentication for PAM and Windows
• MySQL Enterprise Audit, a policy-based Auditing solution
• New Password Management capabilities in MySQL 5.6

In this webinar, Principal MySQL Technical Consultant Dale Dasker will explain and provide practical tips on using these features. In addition, Dale will review important security best practices for ISVs and OEMs, such as:

• Changing MySQL’s default settings (which assume the physical server and file systems have restricted access though they often do not when MySQL is embedded / bundled.)
• Setting MySQL to install securely
• Obscuring InnoDB data
• Making your application aware of database file tampering
