Oracle Audits

Data management, storage and retrieval are core IT functions. Oracle databases provide this functionality along with a wide range of add-on products offered by the vendor. The foundation of database security is a deep understanding of the unique risks and controls associated with this critical IT infrastructure.

Our audits are designed to add value through stronger security, better configuration and adherence to industry best practices. We use a holistic approach that covers database integration with surrounding networks, applications and web infrastructure. Best practices are used from the vendor and from the Center for Internet Security (CIS).

Continental Audit Services provides experienced auditors at competitive rates. Our auditors have worked in some of the world’s largest technology environments including those of large financial services companies.

Some of the areas that we cover in our database audits are displayed to the right. Please contact Continental Audit Services to request a proposal tailored to meet your specific requirements.
