A few days ago the semi-annual Trivadis TechEvent took place. As always, it was a great IT event where Trivadis employees and customers had the opportunity to exchange and discuss a variety of topics. I had the pleasure to give one lecture about Oracle 18c New Security Features as well one on Oracle Enterprise User Security, Kerberos and Oracle Unified directory. In the meantime, both presentations have been published via SlideShare.

Oracle 18c new Security Features

Abstract: The aim of the presentation is to discuss the various security enhancements which has been introduced with Oracle Release 18c. But which features are worth a closer look at? In what context do the new features and option do make sense? How can security be improved in general with Oracle database 18c? Where does it make sense to invest in additional database options? The aim of this lecture is to answer these and other questions around Oracle Database 18c security.

The demos for this presentation is rather small but also available as GitHub Gist oehrlis/EUS_demos.md.

Oracle EUS, Kerberos, SSL and OUD a guideline

Abstract: The configuration of a central user administration for Oracle DB is basically simple. The challenge is to integrate the different technologies in a meaningful and stable IT environment. Oracle EUS together with OUD, Kerberos or SSL can be implemented autonomously or in combination with existing directory services or an IAM solution. In addition to the technical challenges, other aspects such as users, roles and the security concept in general also play an important role. Within the scope of this lecture, the measures are discussed in order to establish a central user administration for Oracle.
