Status: Select either Enabled or Disabled to enable or disable the secure application role during run time. Ensure that this name follows the standard Oracle naming conventions for role creation using the CREATE ROLE statement, described in Oracle Database SQL Reference. Preferably, enter the role name in upper case letters, though you are not required to do so. Role: Enter the name using no more than 30 characters, with no spaces. In the Create (or Edit) Role page, enter the following settings and then click OK.

See 'SET_ROLE Procedure' for more information about the SET_ROLE function.

You can use DVSYS.DBMS_MACSEC_ROLES.SET_ROLE in your application code to accomplish this. For example, in SQL*Plus: GRANT myExistingDBrole TO myDVrole Īfter you create a new secure application role, you must modify your code to use this new role. If you want to modify an existing Oracle Database role so that it can work with Oracle Database Vault, create a new secure application role in Oracle Database Vault and then grant the existing role to the secure application role. You cannot modify secure application roles or database roles that have been created outside of Oracle Database Vault.

Remember that you can modify an existing secure application role only if it has been created in Oracle Database Vault. To edit an existing secure application role, select it from the list and then click Edit. To create a new secure application role, click Create. In the Administration page, under Database Vault Feature Administration, click Secure Application Roles.

'Starting Oracle Database Vault Administrator' explains how to log in. Log in to Oracle Database Vault Administrator using a database account that has been granted the Database Vault Owner ( DV_OWNER) role.Īt a minimum, you must have the DV_ADMIN role. See Chapter 5, 'Configuring Rule Sets' for more information about rule sets. If the rule must have more complex code to validate the user, you can create a PL/SQL handler, and then attach it to the rule set.

The rule should validate the user who is trying to log in. When you create the underlying rule for the rule set, remember that Oracle Database Vault automatically builds in invoker's rights for the secure application role. To configure secure application roles by using the PL/SQL interfaces and packages provided by Oracle Database Vault, refer to the following chapters:Ĭhapter 11, 'Using the DVSYS.DBMS_MACADM Package'Ĭhapter 14, 'Using the Oracle Database Vault PL/SQL Interfaces'Ĭreating and Editing Secure Application RolesĬreate a rule set that contains at least one rule to set the conditions that grant or deny the role to the user logging in. This chapter explains how to configure secure application roles by using Oracle Database Vault Administrator. See 'Related Reports and Data Dictionary View' for more information. You can run reports on secure application roles that you create in Oracle Database Vault. The rule definition should validate the user who is trying to log in. All you need to do is to create the role and then associate it with a rule set. Oracle Database Vault automatically creates the secure application role to use invoker's rights. Furthermore, no matter how the user connects to the database, the result is the same, because the rule set is bound to the role.

In this way, if you must update the security policy for the application role, you do it in one place, the rule set. Basing the role on a rule set provides a consistent and flexible method to enforce the security policies that the role provides. The advantage of basing database access for a role on a rule set is that you can store database security policies in one central place, as opposed to storing them in all your applications. This forces users to work within the framework of the application privileges that have been granted to the role. You use secure application roles to prevent users from accessing data from outside an application. Regular Oracle Database secure application roles are enabled by custom PL/SQL procedures. In Oracle Database Vault, you can create a secure application role that you enable with an Oracle Database Vault rule set. What Are Secure Application Roles in Oracle Database Vault?
