A South African organisation is breached every three hours. The route in varies – the destination is always the database, the one layer most security budgets never reach. Guarding the route while the destination goes unwatched is not a strategy. 🔗 ascent.tech/database-breach-… #AscentTech #DatabaseSecurity

🏭 NEW WHITE PAPER — Schiphol University Database Doctrine Series "The Supplier Says Secure. The Database Says Prove It." — Third-party assurance claims rarely survive first contact with your database audit logs. This white paper exposes the gap between vendor security attestations and the data-layer evidence that actually matters — query logs, access patterns, encryption validation, and breach response capability.
