I’m an Oracle ACE now!

Wednesday, August 26th, 2009

I received an email from Oracle with an invitation for the Oracle ACE program! I must admit I am proud of the recognition from “the industry” for my community efforts. See my ACE profile here.

For this recognition I must thank Doug Burns, but also all other friends who helped me solving problems, help with presentations, or helping me in other aspects. Thank you! Last but not least my employer, VX Company..

Operating system security for the oracle database

Wednesday, August 12th, 2009

A paper written as a companion for my presentation ‘Oracle security done right’, which will be presented at the Slovenian International Oracle User Group (SIOUG), and at the UKOUG has been put on technet in the security section: http://www.oracle.com/technology/deploy/security/index.html

If you are interested in enhancing security on linux/unix based systems and making DBA usage audit-able, fetch the paper. Of course, any comments are appreciated!
