Abstract
Addressing security demands under fixed budgets and tight time constraints are becoming extremely challenging, time consuming and resource intensive. Moreover, securing the distributed database in compliance with several security guidelines makes the system more complex. Mission critical systems, military, government and financial institutions have been under tremendous pressure to secure their databases. Such requirements mandate that each system passes a strict security scan before it is deemed suitable to go into operational mode. This paper presents a framework that embeds security capabilities into distributed database by replicating different predefined security policies at different sites using multilevel secure database management system.
