Teleport's Database Access Controls (DAC) have always been designed to offer secure, auditable access to databases. But in today's rapidly evolving security landscape, simply having access controls isn't enough. Organizations need more granular control, better visibility, and seamless integration with existing security policies. This post explores how Teleport's latest features—object-level permissions and Teleport Policy integration—address these needs.

Human nature tells us that we’ll go for the low-hanging fruit before climbing a tree. Since threat actors are (after all) human, the same applies to them. Since databases are particularly vulnerable to many lower-level attacks, they are constantly at high risk. From misconfiguration to credential theft, these repositories of sensitive information can be preyed upon by even the most nascent cybercriminals.

Securing database access has become a critical concern for organizations globally. Your organization’s data is its most valuable asset, encompassing everything about your business, partners, customers and employees. A data breach could jeopardize your entire operation.

In today’s digitized world, the heart of any organization’s IT infrastructure is arguably its database systems. Databases host a wide range of information, from sensitive customer data to proprietary business intelligence — which makes them a top target for cyberattacks. As a database administrator (DBA), you need a solid grasp of database security to protect your organization’s databases from downtime and data breaches.
