OWASP Backend Security Project DB2 Hardening

= Overview =

Historically DB2 has lived on a mainframe and resided in a fairly secure network. More and more we see DB2 exposed to the large world and used as backend for web applications. With these changes in DB2 comes increased risk. This Section has the objectives to define the minimum security requirements for configuring and managing DB2 databases, in terms of access to, configuration and management of the system, and to supply guidelines and operation instructions for system administrators, in order to guarantee the development of secure applications on DB2 platforms.
