Best Practices for Securing Oracle Database
summary
Outlines Oracle’s Maximum Security Architecture and names the actual controls: encryption at rest and in motion (AES-256, TLS 1.3), Database Vault, ZDLRA immutable backups, data redaction and masking for non‑prod, centralized auditing, and SQL Firewall. Recommends Oracle Data Safe and Audit Vault for fleet assessments, discovers sensitive data, and alerts on drift across hundreds or thousands of DBs. Calls out over 40 new security features in 23ai, the Dirty Dozen attack vectors to mitigate, and schema‑level and column‑level controls to enforce least privilege.
