Security

Oracle has been bundling security products with SQL*Net and the RDBMS since Version 7.1.4 of the database. They have moved the security software from Secure Network Services into the Advanced Networking Option, which includes additional naming services as well. But whatever the name, the product provides encryption and authentication services for SQL*Net/Net8.

Table 2.12 depicts the matrix of RDBMS releases, bundled security software, and functionality. The installation and configuration of these services is platform-specific.
