The new releases of Microsoft SQL Server: SQL Server 2016 & 2017 brings new functionality for Data Security Professionals. Newest release – SQL Server 2017 made those features even more mature. Now you can protect your data in your database anywhere (on-premise, in the cloud, in transit, in the hybrid environment) even more simply than before. Transparent Data Encryption with better algorithms and better support for backup, Row-Level Security, Dynamic Data Masking and Always Encrypted for your application are now simple features. Azure Security Center brings us a new way of looking and adopting security best practices in an easy way. We focus on theory and of course, on demos. We look a little closer for few specific files that exist in our environment. We work on all three different environments, but our goal is only one: protect your data.
