What is 'Data Safe' in Oracle Autonomous Database?

Data Safe in Oracle Autonomous Database is a comprehensive security service designed to help organizations manage and mitigate security risks associated with their databases. It provides features that enable users to assess their database security posture, monitor sensitive data, and enforce security controls.

The service offers various functionalities, including identifying and remediating potential vulnerabilities, auditing database activity, and providing security assessments. It also facilitates the management of user access and privileges, helping organizations ensure that their sensitive data is adequately protected from unauthorized access or potential breaches.

In contrast, while backup services, verification tools for data integrity, and monitoring applications for user activity are related to database management and security, they do not encompass the broader security risk management approach that Data Safe offers. Data Safe focuses specifically on the overall security management and risk reduction for Oracle databases, which makes it a unique and specialized service within the Oracle Cloud ecosystem.
