Synopsis

Security enforcement is an enabler for databases to meet mandatory regulatory compliance and privacy requirements. A well-rounded yet efficient security mechanism would make a database product eligible for high profile government contracts and new markets in the financial sector, and make it trustworthy among many third party applications that are likely to be built on top of it. This book reviews traditional database paradigm and proposes architectural changes to improve database performance under modern security requirements. The book combines both theoretical and practical aspects, and covers a wide spectrum of database design issues, such as storage scheme, data caching, and query optimization.
