en.Wedoany.com Reported - Dimension News, Oracle released the database security management tool Oracle Database Security Central on August 14, offering enterprise users a free usage period of approximately six months, ending at the end of February 2027. The tool aims to provide security teams with a unified view of security risks in their database environments.

The release comes as Oracle customers face severe security challenges, with attackers continuously targeting vulnerabilities in Oracle database products. Meanwhile, Oracle has expressed concern over security threats posed by the AI vulnerability discovery model Mythos. In May of this year, Oracle adjusted its patch release cycle from quarterly to monthly to address the growing AI-driven cybersecurity threats. The first monthly patch batch fixed 35 vulnerabilities, 11 of which were rated as critical.

According to Oracle, Security Central helps security teams assess security posture, detect configuration drift, identify privileged users and access risks, while monitoring access to sensitive data and collecting audit evidence. The tool also centralizes security policy management, preventing policy discrepancies that could expose enterprises to risk.
