Using Granular Access Control - Implementing Database Security and Auditing - page 201

more techniques are being built as you read these words. In fact, I know of
Java work being done at IBM (which will then be submitted for accep-
tance to Sun) to support granular access control in a J2EE environment.
Because this is such an important topic, I hope this will happen sooner
rather than later.
The next chapter goes back to the core database engine to discuss some
of the extensions and rich functions that modern databases can do other
than simple persistence and data lookup, and what pitfalls you should be
aware of when you use these advanced functions.
