Secure PostgreSQL Deployments
Date: 2015-03-11
Time: 14:30–15:20
Room: Falconer 202-203
PostgreSQL supports several options for securing communications when deployed outside the typical webserver/database combination, or in high security environments. This talk will go into some details about the features that make this possible. The main areas discussed are:
- Securing the PostgreSQL infrastructure and runtime environment
- Securing the channel between client and server using SSL, including an overview of the threats and how to secure against them
- Securing the login process with methods including LDAP, Kerberos or SSL certificates
