Microsoft Access is the most popular desktop database
in the world today and its very popularity means that its security measures
can be easily compromised. "Real World Microsoft Access Database Security" takes
a different approach to all the other Access books in the market in that it
focuses from the start on all the issues that will help protect your database.
The book approaches protection and security from a task-by-task perspective
and provides detail on all the little things that when put together will make
your database more secure. This will achieve things like keep your staff from
looking at your salary tables, stopping your customers from looking at the design
of your software that you distribute and helping you decide which security options
are worth doing and which generally a waste of your time.
The book has an IT manager's overview on all topics so that managers can assess
the risk of different strategies. Where the topics are at an administrator's
level, the book provides a visual step-by-step guide to implementing and undoing
the settings. Finally, as Garry is very experienced in writing for developers,
the book goes into the detail of programming all types of security issues such
as hiding tables as system tables, producing databases that password cracker
software cannot crack (easily), backing up databases, menus, queries and even
user surveillance.
