Securing SQL Server is one of the most important responsibilities of the SQL Server professional. Ensuring your data is safe requires a combination of good systems and database administration, and intelligent application design – weaving a security plan that matches the capabilities and vulnerabilities of each contributing part.
But at its root, security is concerned with controlling access – authenticating who can access the data on the server, authorizing what users can do with that data, and securing data as it is transported. These core topics are the focus of this book.
SQL Server Security Distilled shows you:
What you can do to secure date in SQL Server
How SQL Server handles authentication and authorization in different versions
How SQL Server security integrates with Windows security
The security pros and cons of different transport protocols
Ways to tailor SQL Server security to different applications, including client-server and Web applications
How to secure DTS packages
The implications of different types of replication for security
The security features of SQL Server CE and its server-side agents
Curlingstone is a new imprint providing practical information on all aspects of the technology, techniques, and job roles that form the database community.

Security (along with performance and availability) is one of the big responsibilities of the data professional. Ensuring that your data is secure, and that the end-to-end security of your application is to spec, are major jobs. Securing data as it becomes more visible through web applications is a major headache. "SQL Server Security Distilled" is for experienced SQL Server professionals that want a practical examination of SQL Server security (for versions 6.5, 7.0, and 2000). It looks at: the internal mechanisms SQL Server uses to secure data; the differences in security between SQL Server versions; how SQL Server security relates to Windows security; ways to tailor SQL Server security to different applications; how to secure DTS; and the security features of SQL Server CE.
Morris Lewis has been smitten with Structured Query Language since the first time his professor wrote SELECT * FROM AUTHORS on the chalkboard 14 years ago. He has worked with no other database server since he first installed SQL Server 4.21a on his 16MHZ Intel 386 computer with all of the 32 megabytes of RAM running Windows NT 3.51 many years ago. With the mantra, "It is O.K. to worry if they really are out to get you," he has focused on all aspects of securing Windows and SQL Server since he connected his first server to the Internet. Now, he runs a training and consulting company, Holistech Inc., which focuses on helping clients create better and more secure database applications, and teaching them how to avoid the mistakes that can lead to problems in the future.
