I’m so happy to be able to announce that I’ll be giving a precon at SQL Saturday 194 over in England on Friday March 8th, 2013. This precon will be will be on SQL Server Security which is a topic which I’m quite familiar with.
During this full day precon we will review a variety of ways to secure your SQL Server databases and data from attach. In this session we will review proper network designs, recommended firewall configurations, and physical security options. We will also review our data encryption options, password protection options, using contained databases, and AlwaysOn Availability Groups security. There will also be discussions about additional measures which should be taken when working with Internet facing applications.
From there we will move to the most dangerous attack vector SQL Injection including all the ways that attackers can use SQL Injection to get into your system and how to protect against it. The security options for database backups is the next topic on the list followed by proper SAN security designs. We will then finish up by reviewing the auditing options which are available and how they can be used to monitor everything else which we’ve just talked about during the course of the day.
If you are interested in attending the precon check out the precon page on the SQL South West website which has the registration link. I look forward to seeing you there.
Denny
