Security process to avoid the infiltration of SQL injection (SQL injection)

Abstract

Databases have become essential and widespread in organizational operations, as the vast majority of sensitive data is stored in database management systems such as Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, among others. Attacking a database has become one of the primary targets for cybercriminals, as they seek valuable information. Databases are used to store vast amounts of critical data. Consequently, a growing number of regulations have compelled organizations to audit access to sensitive information to protect themselves from attacks and misuse. In response, automation in database auditing has emerged as a solution to identify malicious activities and prevent fraud. Among database threats, SQL injection ranks as the second most common attack vector, often targeting websites and overloading databases.
