Question: Database security is important and if you search the National Vulnerability Database's Vulnerability Search Engine, you will find over 1,000 database-related vulnerabilities. To properly address the security risks a database may introduce into a corporate network environment, an information security professional must perform database security research, vulnerability analysis, and risk assessments. Research three (3) database vulnerabilities and describe what they are and how they affect data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Then describe a compensating control you can put in place to reduce the probability of an attacker exploiting the database vulnerabilities you listed above. Include strong justifications for the compensating controls you choose by comparing them to other controls which are less effective. A compensating control is a security workaround used in the event a patch cannot be deployed to address the vulnerability. This is typical because patches can break business databases or impact a business process in an unacceptable way. Remember to cite and reference your sources.
