Overview

In “Oracle Database Security” we combine fundamentals and practice: you get to know Privileges and least-privilege concepts, Transparent Data Encryption and Data Redaction and masking, apply what you learn in exercises and receive templates and checklists for your own use.

Oracle databases and the surrounding middleware carry business-critical applications in many organizations, from ERP to specialist software. That calls for solid knowledge of operations, performance, security and development, and increasingly of cloud topics and migration. Our Oracle Database Security courses are aimed at DBAs, developers and architects who want to run their environment reliably, remove bottlenecks precisely and make changes safely. You work in a provided lab environment on realistic tasks and take proven approaches back to your team. The course runs online or on site, lasts one day and is offered at a fixed price per participant.

The course is delivered live – either online in a virtual classroom or on-site in our training rooms in Munich, Salzburg, Berlin, Augsburg, Hanover, Bremen, Stuttgart and Kaiserslautern. We can also run it exclusively for your team.
