SecurityYou can secure your HCL OneDB™ database server and the data that is stored in your HCL OneDB™ databases. You can encrypt data, secure connections, control user privileges and access, and audit data security.
Security in HCL OneDB™The HCL OneDB™ Security Guide documents methods for keeping your data secure by preventing unauthorized viewing and altering of data or database objects, including how to use the secure-auditing facility of the database server.
Securing data
Connection securityYou can administer the security of the connections to the database server by using authentication and authorization processes.
Internal users (UNIX™, Linux™)The DBSA can grant database access to users that do not authenticate on the OS of the host computer by mapping PAM-authenticated users to OS-level entities or by configuring the server to perform internal authentication.
Internally authenticated users (UNIX™, Linux™)The DBSA can configure the server to authenticate users by checking their credentials with a hashed password that is stored inside the database server.

Internally authenticated users (UNIX, Linux)

The DBSA can configure the server to authenticate users by checking their credentials with a hashed password that is stored inside the database server.

The DBSA creates internally authenticated users with the CREATE USER statement and sets up a password that is stored in the HCL OneDB™ SYSINTAUTHUSERS catalog table of the SYSUSER database.

The DBSA can administer internally authenticated users with the CREATE USER, DROP USER, ALTER USER, and RENAME USER SQL statements. Users can change their own password with the SET USER PASSWORD statement.
