QuestionQ23

Managing System Security

Which of the following are countermeasures for preventing unauthorized database-access attacks?

Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.

Choose three
  • A Session encryption
  • B Removing all stored procedures
  • C Input sanitization
  • D Applying strong firewall rules
Explanation

Session encryption protects database traffic from interception, input sanitization helps prevent injection attacks, and strong firewall rules restrict database connectivity to authorized sources and ports. Removing all stored procedures is not inherently a security control; properly designed stored procedures can help limit and control database access.
