Oracle Database Security Administration Training
Duration: 3 Days
Learn the security features built into the Oracle database in this hands-on class. This includes Standard Edition facilities, also facilities available only with Enterprise Edition licences and with EE options. Most of the activities require use of command line utilities. As with all SkillBuilders courses, this class (if conducted at your company facilities) is highly customizable to your specific training requirements. The content does not include detail of the Data Vault, or the Audit Vault and Database Firewall option. The current release of the database is used for exercises and demonstrations, and the content back-ported as necessary for previous releases.
