Enterprise User Security Lunch & Learn with Oracle
Hub City Media (HCM) and Oracle hosted a Lunch & Learn event in Atlanta on April 7, 2016, providing industry leaders with the opportunity to discuss Enterprise User Security (EUS). The discussion focused around simplifying user management and avoiding common security risks.
As enterprises keep up with data proliferation, database tasks such as provisioning, resetting passwords, assigning roles and managing privileges become a greater challenge. We established this forum to help businesses understand how to consolidate / manage user credentials and privileges using Directory services while strengthening security and compliance.
HCM presented various case studies around EUS, showcasing our ability to assist customers with database issues by implementing EUS, and were well-received by the audience. Two examples are detailed below.
