1 Introduction to the ProjectDatabase 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 more than 345 million customer records have been lost or stolen since 2005 when they began

tracking data breach incidents and the Ponemon Institute reports the average cost of a data breach has

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, 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:

Database problems log: It logs different problems of database faced.

Maintenance log: It contains what different procedure followed to make the data into previous

state.

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.
