Tanya has provided excellent training for ISACA in the past. She
is a Senior Certified Instructor and courseware author for SANS (SysAdmin, Audit, Network, Security) where she has developed and delivered training in security auditing, incident handling, hacker exploits, database security and perimeter protection, as well as being an authorized grader for some of the GIAC certifications. She teaches the SANS course on auditing security and controls of Oracle databases.The Oracle Database Security Auditing course focuses on understanding, identifying and mitigating risk to Oracle databases. Specifically, risks prevalent in Oracle 8i, 9i, 10g and 11g are discussed. The course starts by covering foundational information, including an introduction to SQL. Once the foundation is built, students explore the Oracle environment and how to identify weaknesses. Hands-on exercises give students the opportunity to not only hear about the vulnerabilities, but understand and mitigate the risk for the vulnerabilities. Oracle specific security solutions will also be discussed including database auditing, TDE encryption, virtual private databases, label security, database vault, audit vault, FGA, total recall, configuration scanning, OAS and data masking. Multiple tools, queries and techniques will be explored in order to obtain a comprehensive understanding on how to audit Oracle databases. * Students are required to bring a laptop in order to ensure that the hands-on exercises can be completed. The laptop should meet the following specifications: - CD-ROM drives
- A minimum of 10 gigabytes of free hard disk space
- A minimum of at least 1 gigabyte of RAM
- Windows XP Professional SP 2 or higher
- Administrative access in order to install tools
