Garry Robinson

Real World Microsoft Access Database Protection and Security

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Security issues for all versions of Access from 97 to 2003 are discussed and the merits of each security approach from both the perspective of the developer and the database administrator/manager are examined.

---

Author Garry Robinson approaches this book differently than other Access books on the market: he keeps the focus on issues that will help protect your database. Written from an experienced developers point of view, he discusses protection and security task-by-task. This book is even recommended among Microsoft TechNet Security Topics: Threats and Countermeasures.

Youll learn to hide tables as system tables, produce databases that are difficult to crack, and back up databases. You will learn how to keep staff from viewing salary tables, prevent customers from peeking at your distributed software design, and become a better judge of worthwhile security options (versus time-consuming choices).
