Building Web sites that provide services external to the corporate firewall is tricky. Usually it's not desirable to grant corporate domain accounts to external clients, and from a purely practical standpoint Kerberos does not work well over the Internet due to the typical configuration of client-side firewalls. This means that the site has to provide some form of authentication and authorization that is different from the methods built into Windows®.... |

There are many ways to get into trouble when it comes to security. You can trust all code that runs on your network, give any user access to important files, and never bother to check that code on your machine has not changed. You can run without virus protection software, not build security into your own code, and give too many privileges to too many accounts. You can even use a number of built-in functions carelessly enough to allow break-ins, and you can leave server ports open and unmonitore... |

Duwamish7.0 uses SQL Server authentication to access SQL Server. While this is simple and provides an easy to understand sample, it is not the most secure option. Duwamish 7.0 stores its connection strings in the Web.config file. This location is readable by any user by default so it is very easy for the secrets (credentials) to be unintentionally disclosed.... |

Correct and accurate administration of user accounts and their privileges greatly contributes to security. However, it turns to be a tough task in practice. DB administrators know that in fast-paced environment it's impossible to avoid errors, while controlling a huge amount of accounts and their privileges, unless you have ... |

One of the most interesting phenomena in the computing arena within the last few years is the growing concern for security, which, at this point, is being treated on a par with efficiency and cost (as a matter of fact, security became one of the primary factors when evaluating any technology-based solution) . The main driving factors behind this trend are the increasing number of computer worms and viruses (combined with ubiquity of the Internet), the financial impact of their destructive nature... |

Although security is a major component of database administration, it is sometimes overlooked in favour of convenience. User accounts are given elevated permissions to save time, patches and hot-fixes are not applied timely and best practices are often not followed. Over time, the server becomes vulnerable to potential breaches of security.... |
