Hybrid detection for databases using SQL injection and insider misuse detection techniques

The recent rapid proliferations of web based applications with databases at its back-end have further increased the risk of database exposure to the outside world. Nowadays, there are many reports on intrusion from external and internal threats that compromised the database system. For that reason,...
