Database Security

Safeguard your most valuable asset

Adequate database security avoids breaches and ensures business continuity

Data breaches and cyberattacks are on the rise, posing significant risks to your organisation’s reputation and financial stability. Xynomix provides comprehensive database security services, from risk assessments to proactive monitoring, ensuring your critical data remains secure and compliant.

The critical importance of database security

Why database security matters in today’s threat landscape

Databases hold a wealth of sensitive information, including customer data, financial records, and intellectual property. This makes them prime targets for cybercriminals. A single breach can lead to severe consequences, including financial losses, regulatory fines, and irreparable damage to your brand’s reputation.

Beyond external threats, internal vulnerabilities and human error can also compromise your database security. It’s crucial to implement a robust, multi-layered database security strategy to mitigate risks and ensure data integrity.

Our process

How we improve your data security

1

Initial Estate Review

Firstly, we’ll conduct a full estate review as part of our overall database hardening regime. This will give us a top-down view of your databases, and highlight any potential areas of concern.
2

Platform Assessment

Secondly, we’ll perform an in-depth security assessment of your Oracle and/or SQL Server databases. Our dedicated database consultants are amongst the most experienced in the UK, with customers benefiting from tried-and-tested security best practices.
3

Identifying Sensitive Data

Working with you, we’ll identify the most sensitive data, including business critical and personally identifiable information. We’re independently accredited to ISO 27001 (Information Security Management), delivering peace of mind when it comes to data handling.
4

Evaluation of Security Configurations

Finally, we’ll assess the effectiveness of your estate’s current security configurations. More often than not, we find that there are a whole range of config-based improvements that can be made, bolstering your overall data security.

Common database security threats

Let us help you mitigate the risk of the following vulnerabilities…

  • SQL injection attacks
  • Data breaches and exfiltration
  • Privilege escalation
  • Denial of Service (DoS) attacks
