Security of databases

Description

The subject provides students with the formation of theoretical knowledge and practical skills on ensuring information security during the design, construction and operation of databases. within the scope of the subject, the basic concepts of databases and database management systems, security principles and sensitive data protection methods are studied. students learn the methods and tools used to identify and prevent SQL injection, unauthorized access, data breaches, and other security threats. authentication, authorization, access control, auditing and monitoring mechanisms in databases, as well as legal and regulatory compliance issues are considered. security features, risk management, and security incident response approaches specific to cloud-based and nosql databases are also explored. the subject is aimed at forming students' abilities to assess the security situation of databases, detect existing vulnerabilities and determine appropriate protective measures.
