1 Introduction to the Project

Database technologies are a core component of many computing systems. They allow data to be retained

and shared electronically and the amount of data contained in these systems continues to grow at an

exponential rate.Database security is a growing concern evidenced by an increase in the number of reported incidents of

loss of or unauthorized exposure to sensitive data. The Privacy Rights Clearing House (2010) reports that

consideration and a proper procedure of database backup and recovery will be suggested to ensure all data

are available although hacked or mishandled.

This case study will be carried out in Global Bank, situated in Kathmandu Nepal, in a database

environment using Oracle 10g as Database management System.

2 Aims of the project

The aim of this project is to find out how database backup and recovery methodology, among different

methodology to secure database can be used to secure the data of Global bank Ltd, where Oracle 10g is

used as DBMS, based on the different cases of problem faced. So that at any circumstances like system

failure, system crash, database crash, theft hacking etc all the data are retained properly without loss and

inconsistency.

3 Deliverables of the project

With the end of the project, a comprehensive report of different cases of database security related

problems solved using the backup and recovery methodology of database security would serve as a

reference guide and solutions for similar problems in future.

The following things are delivered at the end of the project:

4 Suggested Starting Point

I will visit the Global Bank Ltd located in Kathmandu. I will inquire to the database personnel about the

DBMS being used and inform them about this research. Based on the information provided by them I will

plan for further steps. I will gain the information about the techniques they are using in comparison with

the global trend. To get the information about database technology used in global market I will go through

documents review. After that I will get acquainted with the problems during the database operations.

5 Estimated Costing and Resources Required

This project requires a database environment to carry on this research. For this, I will use the real-time

database environment of the Global Bank. And for the testing purpose, I would set up a testing

environment on this laptop and carry out the testing.
