Database security model in the academic information system

Abstract

Database plays an important role on both web-based or desktop based academic information system (AIS) in Indonesian higher education institutions (HEI). Nowadays web-based AIS dominates in Indonesian HEI, almost every HEI uses web-based AIS with relational database management system (RDBMS) as database software. Relational database systems such as Oracle, MySQL, MS SQL Server or PostgreSQL are familiarly used as database management system in the AIS. There are many researches on development of AIS in HEI but none of them is discussing database security and integrity. This research will perform the analysis of database security model that could be used in AIS such as table constraints, table relationships and role-based access control (RBAC). © 2014 SERSC.
