Database Security Services

Your database is the single highest-value target in your infrastructure. We deliver a custom security engagement — assessment, hardening, and continuous monitoring — built around the databases you actually run.

What's Included

A layered approach to protecting your data

We don't hand you a generic checklist. Each engagement starts with understanding your schema, query patterns, and who legitimately needs access — then we build controls around that reality.

Security Audits & Vulnerability Assessment

A full review of your database configuration, user privileges, network exposure, and known CVEs affecting your specific engine version.

Access Control & Privilege Hardening

Role redesign and least-privilege enforcement so that a single compromised credential can't expose your entire dataset.

Encryption — At Rest & In Transit

Implementation and validation of encryption for stored data and for every connection your applications make to the database.

SQL Injection & Query-Layer Defense

Review of application-database interaction points to close off injection vectors before they reach production.

Backup & Disaster Recovery Review

Verification that your backup strategy actually protects you — encrypted, tested, and recoverable within your required window.

24×7 Monitoring & Anomaly Detection

Ongoing monitoring for unusual query patterns, unauthorized access attempts, and privilege escalation, with direct alerting to your team.

Platforms We Work With

Engine-specific hardening, not generic advice

Every database engine has its own attack surface. Our recommendations are specific to the engine and version you're actually running.

  • MySQL / MariaDB
  • PostgreSQL
  • Microsoft SQL Server
  • MongoDB & other NoSQL stores
  • Oracle Database

"iCubix rebuilt our access control from the ground up after an audit found three service accounts with far more privilege than they ever needed. That alone closed our biggest risk."
