Job Description:

Oracle Database Security Development - Data Safe Cloud ServicePrincipal Software EngineerTaleo ID: 210001KGRedwood City, CA
Oracle Database Security Development Group is the core security group in Oracle. The team developed a variety of core security products in Oracle Database Kernel. Oracle Databases hold the majority of the world's relational data, and are attractive targets for attackers seeking high-value targets for data theft. Compromise of a single Oracle Database can result in tens of millions of breached records costing millions in breach-mitigation activity. Safeguard your most valuable data with Oracle's powerful preventive and detective security controls, including transparent data encryption, encryption key management, privileged user and multi-factor access control, data classification and discovery, database activity monitoring and blocking, consolidated auditing and reporting and data masking. With Oracle, you can deploy reliable data-security solutions that require no changes to existing applications, saving time and money.
Oracle Advanced Security Team provides two important preventive controls to protect sensitive data at the source: encryption and redaction. Together, these two controls form the foundation of Oracle's defense-in-depth, multi-layered database security solution.
Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) stops would-be attackers from bypassing the database and reading sensitive information directly from storage by enforcing data-at-rest encryption in the database layer.
Data Redaction complements TDE by reducing the risk of unauthorized data exposure in applications, redacting sensitive data before it leaves the database.Authenticating user identity is imperative in distributive environments, without which there can be little confidence in network security. Passwords are the most common means of authentication. Oracle Database enables strong authentication with Oracle authentication adapters that support various third-party authentication services, including SSL with digital certificates.
Oracle Advanced Security Team works on all layers of the database kernel stack and provide advanced security products for customers.
We're looking for hands-on Principal Security Developer (IC4) with keen focus and knowledge in Data Security to join the Oracle Advanced Security Team.
