FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What SQL Server security services do you provide? +

We provide Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) implementation, column-level encryption, certificate and key management, security auditing, access control review, data classification, authentication hardening, encrypted backups, and PCI-DSS compliance assessment and implementation.

Are you PCI-DSS compliant? +

Yes. DBA Services is PCI-DSS SAQ-D Service Provider compliant. We understand the requirements for database-level compliance and can help your business achieve and maintain PCI-DSS compliance for your SQL Server infrastructure.

What is Transparent Data Encryption (TDE)? +

TDE encrypts SQL Server database files at rest - meaning the physical data files, log files, and backups are encrypted. This protects against the threat of someone obtaining physical access to your storage media. TDE is transparent to applications and requires no application code changes.

Can you help with a security audit? +

Yes. Our health checks include a high-level security analysis, and we offer detailed security audits as a consulting engagement. We review authentication modes, authorization settings, encryption configuration, error logs for breach indicators, and overall security posture against best practices.
