Pete Finnigan's Oracle Security Weblog

Kamil Stawiarski who runs Database Whisperers sp. z o. o. sp. k., an Oracle specialist consulting company in Poland and whose company is also a reseller for our Oracle database security scanner PFCLScan in Poland has invited me to speak at the up-coming http://poug.org/en/ - (broken link) 1st International Conference in Poland but due to other commitments I cannot make it this year. Kamil and the guys already have some good speakers and I wish I could be there. Please have a look at the link above and come along to what promises to be a very good event in Poland!!

I also got a speaking slot at Oracle Open World but unfortunately due to a critical work commitment have had to decline the slot. This is a great pity as I have never attended Oracle Open World and I would really have liked to spoken there this year. I have however agreed to still write a paper with Oracle on the subject of the proposed talk "In the mind of a database hacker" so watch out for news of that over the coming period as its created and published.

I am also going to be teaching 5 in-depth days of my Oracle security classes with Oracle in Reading, UK from September 26th to 30th. I am looking forward to this as its a rare opportunity to attend all 5 days of my Oracle security classes in one session. If you would like to attend then please register your place with Oracle.

Over the last week or so I have also received notice from the UKOUG that I have two slots at the Tech 16 Conference in Birmingham, UK this year from December 5th to 7th at the ICC. I am hosting an Oracle Security round table and also will present on what to do if you do not have (or cannot have if you are on SE, SE1, SE2) Database Vault and would still like to have some or all of the features. Hope to see you at the UKOUG in December!!

I am also teaching two one day classes on the 29th and 30th November 2016 in Vienna, Austria with Oracle University. These are "Secure Coding in PL/SQL" and "Lock down and secure your Oracle Database".

OK, that's all for now, please come and hear me speak.
