Abstract

In this chapter, we will explain how to secure your database and try to avoid security bugs. In general, the most effective way to defend yourself against security issues is to patch. As a case in point, Oracle has published more than 60 security alerts in its critical patch updates and on its security alerts page, which are released in January, April, July, and October every year.
