  1. Database Integrity, Security and Recovery Database integrity Database security Database recovery

  2. Database Integrity • Database integrity – refers to correct processing of a database such as applying the appropriate business rules when performing a database operations • Means that data stored in a database are accurate

  3. Database Integrity • Several ways to ensure data integrity: • Domain integrity • Entity integrity constraint • Referential integrity • Business rules • Database consistency

  4. Database Integrity • Domain integrity • Means entries in a field or column from the same domain • Validation rules can be applied to trap errors • Entity integrity constraint • Each row in a relation must be unique • Primary key shows the uniqueness of a rows, cannot be NULL (called entity integrity constraint) • Referential integrity • Means that if a table has a foreign key, then a rows of the key must be exist in the referenced table

  5. Database Integrity • Business rules • Relationship between entities define the business rules • Database consistency • Must be consistent before and after a transaction • All database integrity constraints are satisfied

  6. Database Security • All data must be protected from all types of threats • Accidental threats – caused by accidents such as operator carelessness, power failure, disk crashes and fire. • Intentional – caused by human, to exploit weaknesses in the system for personal gain. Such as unauthorized access to database

  7. Database Security • Security measures • Views/subschemas • Authorization rules • Authentication • Encryption • User-defined procedures

  8. Database Security • Views/subschemas • Different user has a different views. • Corresponds to a subset of the database presented to the user • Authorization rules • To restrict access to data and operations • Authentications • Using a specific device to detect personal characteristic

  9. Database Security • Encryption • Used to protect highly confidential or sensitive data • Coding or scrambling data to unintelligible form • Data must be decrypt before the receiver read it • User-defined procedures • Users write their own procedures to protect data

  10. Database Recovery • Several approaches to recover from system failures • Backup failure – makes a copies of the database • Journalizing facilities – used to store the audit trails of transactions and database changes • Checkpoint facilities – will refuse to accept any new transaction • Recovery manager – restore the database correctly after a failure has occured

  11. Database Recovery • Types of database failure • Aborted transaction – to correct the errors, the system must roll back by undoing the steps for the transaction • Incorrect data – updating a database correctly but with uncorrect data • System failure – power failure, disk crashed • Database destruction – part of database may be destroyed
