Writing secure code is only one layer of security for your data. We need to understand how hackers approach our data and how to build a secure database server on which we can predicate secure applications. This webcast helps developers and system administrators "harden" their Microsoft SQL Servers. Hardening involves removing any services that don't contribute to the function of the server, reducing the number of possible vulnerabilities available to the would-be hacker. Join us to find out the ...

In your recent tip (Suspect SQL Server 2000 Database) you outlined a suspect database scenario. I took a look at the script and tried to run it in my environment. Unfortunately, this did not resolve my issue. Are you aware of other causes of SQL Server 2000 suspect databases? We have been working through a SOX audit and have been changing permissions at the file system level for our SQL Server. Could this type of change cause a suspect database? The timing of the permission change and the ...

One way of doing this is to do a SELECT count(*) on all of your tables, but this could create a lot of overhead especially for large databases and large tables. If you don't require an exact answer, it isn't necessary to use a SELECT count(*) query on the rows in a table to get the row count....

I gulped and left the room knowing that we were going to have to do some damage control when I got back. When I talked with the speaker, a well-known consultant in his own right, he said that this approach was a well-accepted way to deal with the problem of not knowing how many rows were going to result from a query. I disagreed and we agreed to disagree and leave it at that. However, so that you don't make the same mistake, let's take a closer look at the problem and how various approaches deal...

Unless you've spent the best years of your life formulating SQL queries on such things as how to ask for a cup of coffee, chances are that trying to analyze a sophisticated SQL string leaves you a bit baffled. On the other hand, SQL was not intended to be the language for casual conversation. SQL was designed to make the conversation between a program and a database management system (DBMS) easier and more effective. Unfortunately, as developers, we are just the ones deputed to govern such a dia...
