Abstract

This research paper delves into the critical realm of database security, a pressing concern for modern organizations with sensitive data. It explores various security threats faced by database systems, including both external cyberattacks and internal vulnerabilities and emphasizes the need for robust security measures. The paper discusses the implementation of advanced techniques such as multi-factor authentication, encryption, and access control models to mitigate risks. Furthermore, it examines the effectiveness of user authentication protocols and compliance policies in protecting databases from unauthorized access and data breaches. A novel security model is proposed, integrating these measures to enhance the overall security of database systems. The study underlines the continuous evolution of cyber threats and the necessity for ongoing research to adapt and strengthen database security strategies, aiming to safeguard sensitive information and maintain organizational integrity in an increasingly digital world.
