Database security is the system, processes, and

procedures that protect a database from unintended activity.


Unintended

activity can be categorized as authenticated misuse, malicious attacks or inadvertent mistakes made by authorized individuals or processes.

intrusion detection is the act of detecting actions that

attempt to compromise confidentiality, integrity, or availability of resource.

When intrusion detection takes a preventive measure

without direct human intervention, then it becomes an intrusion response system.


So the notion of database response policies to support

our intrusion response system tailored for a DBMS.


The two main issues that we address in context of

such response policies are that of Policy Matching and Policy Administration.

The Existing mechanism is a log based mechanism for

the detection of malicious transactions in DBMS.


External security attacks are intentional unauthorized

attempts to access or destroy the organizations private data.


These attacks are perpetrated by unauthorized users

(hackers) that try to gain access to the database by exploring the system vulnerabilities (e.g., incorrect configuration, hidden flaws on the implementation, etc).

internal security attacks are intentional malicious

actions executed by authorized users.


These users use their normal privileges to execute

illicit actions for their personal benefit or to harm the organization by causing loss or corruption of critical data.
Manual supervision and audit procedures are normally

the only tools the DBA can use to detect potential database intrusion.

Intrusion Response System in which previously mentioned drawbacks were overcome with new ideas like instead of giving separate privileges for DBAS, we are going to share the privilege between the DBAS.

For example if a single DBA want to make an

alteration for database objects than he should get permission from other DBAS within their group, so it is an easiest way to control the privilege of DBAS.
