As a database administrator, you’re likely recognized for your practical approach to technology within your organization. While it’s essential to continually sharpen your skills, what really matters is having a database solution ready when a new application question arises. In recent years, many developers have been asking for PostgreSQL (commonly known as “Postgres”) due to its broad functionality. It’s no wonder Postgres was ranked the number one “most-wanted” database in Stack Overflow’s 2021 Developer Survey, surpassing even Redis and MongoDB.

In today’s digital landscape, data security is more crucial—and more at risk—than ever. Our most sensitive information is shared and stored online daily, making it increasingly vulnerable to data breaches.

Over the past decade, many banks have launched developer portals to share their open APIs, allowing developers to sign up and use these APIs to drive their business initiatives. But is this truly open banking in action?

As manufacturing increasingly relies on automation and interconnected systems, the security of Industrial Control Systems (ICS) is becoming more critical than ever. A breach in ICS can result in significant downtime, safety hazards, and substantial financial losses. Given the evolving sophistication of cybercriminals, advanced security solutions are essential to protect critical infrastructure. PrivX offers powerful tools to enhance ICS security, ensuring safe and compliant operations in the manufacturing sector.

Fifteen years ago, the concept of a “computer” was much simpler—limited to desktops, basic mobile phones, and other standard devices. Today, the Internet of Things (IoT) has drastically expanded that definition, embedding processing power and data storage in everything from smartphones to smart vehicles. However, this evolution has also introduced new security challenges. Unlike traditional IT devices, Industrial IoT (IIoT) hardware is designed to endure harsh environments, making data destruction more critical. As these devices store valuable data, robust data destruction methods must be employed to prevent unauthorized access.

How you define insider threat is critical, because how the problem is defined will drive how you define and implement the solution.

Dynamic data movement involves replicating data from traditional RDBMS systems like Oracle to other databases such as MySQL, Azure SQL Database, Kafka, and PostgreSQL.

In the digital age, concerns about data management and privacy are rapidly growing as the volume of data increases exponentially. With regulatory compliance and data privacy issues becoming more prominent, it is the responsibility of the IT industry to ensure data security and prevent leaks by implementing proper data sanitization procedures and tools.

When convenience outweighs caution, features designed to enhance user experience can become vulnerabilities. Windows Autoplay is a prime example. While it instantly launches applications or media from external devices, its design can pose significant security risks.
