Assessment Title
Rule Text
Oracle Database must take steps to protect data at rest and ensure confidentiality and integrity of application data.
Description
Discussion Text
This control is intended to address the confidentiality and integrity of information at rest in nonmobile devices and covers user information and system information. Information at rest refers to the state of information when it is located on a secondary storage device (e.g., disk drive, tape drive) within an organizational information system. Applications and application users generate information throughout the course of their application use.
User-generated data and application-specific configuration data must be protected. Configurations and/or rule sets for firewalls, gateways, intrusion detection/prevention systems, and filtering routers and authenticator content are examples of system information likely requiring protection. Organizations may choose to employ different mechanisms to achieve confidentiality and integrity protections, as appropriate.
If the confidentiality and integrity of application data is not protected, the data will be open to compromise and unauthorized modification.
Oracle recommends using Transparent Data Encryption, which is part of Oracle Advanced Security Option, to protect data.
