- This week we begin with an article about how to prevent major database security threats and maintain the integrity of a database. Security teams must adapt and constantly improve to protect against ever-evolving security threats.
- Next, we have an essay on the top-5 trends in the data recovery market. While backing up the data is vital, its recovery has been the area of concern for the organizations. There is a growing need for diversity in backup and recovery.
- The following article talks about the future of data-driven banks. As the industry becomes more receptive to open finance and embedded banking, failure to tap the power of data will become a competitive drag.
- After that, a note explains the benefits of a data quality strategy and how it may improve an organization’s ability to generate value from data, but determining quality depends on the processes and use cases.
- Next is a piece that talks about the causes of common data quality issues and how can bad data be prevented from entering good pipelines.
- Finally, we have an article describing that the pursuit of high-quality data has overtaken data security as the most important motivator for data governance initiatives.
Major Database Security Threats & How To Prevent Them
Organizations and businesses must use a range of measures, protocols, and tools to protect their databases from cybercriminals.

Why Bad Data Gets Into Your Perfectly Good Pipelines
Predicting how a data pipeline will break is like trying to predict the future; the near infinite number of outcomes makes it an exercise in futility. Nonetheless, data engineers bravely peer into this vast vortex of possibility and set tests to monitor their pipelines’ reliability. They might create data quality checks based on common failure points, past experiences, or how the tarot cards fell, but they cannot create a test for every outcome.
