 Data Server Security
Securing data requires a holistic and layered approach that takes into consideration the broad range of threats. This is commonly referred to as defense in depth, and requires a "security by design" approach, which espouses security as part of the core design of database environments, the supporting infrastructures and business practices around these environments. Multiple layers of security work together to provide the three ultimate objectives of security, commonly known as the CIA triad: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
IBM understands these data security threats, and designs security features directly into its DB2® and Informix® families of data servers. Both data server families are designed with a wide range of security and auditing capabilities to help protect even the most critical data.
