Database Hacker’s Handbook Published

May 1st, 2005

NGS consultants, experts in database security, have authored an essential guide to securing all popular commercial and open-source database systems. The Database Hacker’s Handbook (ISBN 0-7645-7801-4), published by Wiley, steps through the risks to systems running Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, IBM DB2, PostgreSQL, Sybase ASE and MySQL - and clearly details how to protect against these threats. This is a vital reference for both security professionals and database administrators.
