METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR IMPLEMENTING DATA SECURITY POLICIES USING DATABASE CLASSIFICATION

摘要

Access to a database is obtained, the database containing data that is potentially of one or more data types and/or data security classifications. The data in the database is scanned to determine the types and/or data security classifications of the data in the database. Then based, at least in part, on the determined types and/or data security classifications of the data in the database a database security classification is associated with the entire database and used to select one or more security measures to be applied to the entire database, at the database level, in accordance with defined data security policies.
