TOPIC 

The presentation will be a live, educational demo to demonstrate and
facilitate discussion of the top Database Security vulnerabilities.
Corporate databases contain the crown jewels of an organization, which
means a break-in, by insiders or outsiders, can cost millions in fines,
lawsuits, and customer attrition. The good news is there are commonly
used methods to attack databases. Attend this event to see a live
Database hacking demonstration of SQL Injection and several other DB
attacks. 

- Understand the most prominent database security threats and how they
are carried out
- Know how to assess and mitigate database threats
- Have a blueprint for implementing a comprehensive database protection
- Free copy of the Scuba Database vulnerability scanning tool to help
you analyze and identify database vulnerabilities, mis-configurations,
unpatched software, unsafe processes, and weak passwords: the high risk
security vulnerabilities that expose your databases to attack.
