MySQL Data Security Risk Assessment presentation

Securing your data is only as good as your weakest link. A clear-text password in a file or history file, shared privileges between test and production or open sudo access when you can connect as an unprivileged user all are security flaws. This talk discusses how to navigate the poor defaults MySQL has in place, how to strengthen processes and how to audit your environment. It also covers the complexity of deploying changes in an always available production environment.

Presented at the Data.Ops Conference in Barcelona, Spain.
