Keeping applications protected

摘要

This month we are addressing applications. While there is little argument that the crown jewel of any organization is its data, these assets are not particularly useful without applications. We are taking up two specific application security areas: databases and web applications. Both work together to give us a robust information environment. Reviewer Mike Lipinski dug into database security. This was an interesting batch, with one product that started its life as a blazingly fast engine. Mike goes through these products and gives us the lowdown on the most important things to consider when buying a database security product.
