The Significance of Database Security in PostgreSQL Systems

According to IBM’s 2023 Cost of a Data Breach Report, the average cost of a data breach globally was $4.45 million
GDPR fines can reach up to €20 million or 4% of the company’s global annual revenue, whichever is higher
The Equifax breach in 2017 affected 147 million people and has cost the company over $1.4 billion

Determining breach points and hardening your database against them is the fundamental step towards securing your infrastructure and ensuring you avoid being impacted by its vulnerabilities. This allows you to protect sensitive information, ensure data integrity, safeguard intellectual property, and maintain the trust & reputation of your business. 

Hardening your database also assists in your efforts to comply with regulations such as GDPR, PCI, SOC, and HIPAA.
