How to Review Cybersecurity Controls Before Allowing Remote Database Access

Remote database access can expose sensitive records if authentication, network restrictions, and audit coverage are weak.

Checks to make

Require named identities and strong authentication, limit source networks, use encrypted connections, and log administrative queries. Define approval and expiry for temporary access, and test revocation and incident alerts.
