Databases store and manage critical data, making them prime targets for security threats. various security issues [1], such as SQL injection, unauthorized access, insider threats, and data breaches, pose significant risks to database integrity and confidentiality. Additionally, improper encryption, weak authentication mechanisms, and inadequate access controls can further expose databases to cyberattacks. To mitigate [3] these threats, organizations implement security measures such as role-based access control (RBAC), multi-factor authentication (MFA), and encryption techniques for data at rest and in transit. Firewalls, intrusion detection systems (IDS), and regular security audits help identify and prevent unauthorized access. Moreover, database activity monitoring (DAM) and the use of secure coding practices minimize vulnerabilities like SQL injection. This seminar discusses various security challenges in databases and explores modern solutions, including blockchain-based security [2], zero-trust architecture, and AI-driven anomaly detection. By implementing robust security strategies, organizations can safeguard their databases against evolving cyber threats and ensure data privacy, integrity, and availability.
