Masterclass: Hacking and Securing SQL Server (HSS)

In this course you will analyze, learn and practice critical tasks for implementing highly secure SQL Server infrastructure. We'll start with identifying security needs regarding database servers and look at the most common attack types and use them on ‘out of the box' installation. In simple words we will hack our systems!

Then we will discuss impact of system and network security on databases server. Next we will go through every layer of protection offered by SQL Server with lots of real life examples and hands on labs. At the end we will look at the monitoring and auditing our infrastructure to detect threats and react to them. Additionally we'll play with security of other SQL Services and Azure SQL Databases. Our goal is to show and teach you how to protect your precious data in SQL Server environment and how database security mechanisms work. After the course you will be able to test and secure your SQL Server infrastructure. And to get more practice we offer three extra weeks of labs online!
Delivered by a highly skilled SQL and database enthusiast with practical knowledge, multiple successful projects, many years of real-world experience.
You should leave this class with scripts, checklists and practical, ready-to-use knowledge of how to hack, test and secure your SQL Server infrastructure.
The course runs as an intense workshop with a deep dive on the SQL Server. All exercises are based on SQL Server 2016 and Windows Server 2016.
