We have a product, written in Delphi2010, which uses an IBObjects TIBODatabase object to connect to a Firebird2.5 database. The TIBODatabase object has properties for username & password, required to connect. The passwords we're using (SysDBA & two user types) are random alpha & non-alpha characters, 32-chars long.
We have reason to suspect (though no proof at this time) that the security of our DB mayhave been compromised. In way of prevention, we're putting the question out ... have there been known security issues in the Delphi/IBO/Firebird chain? Is there an upper limit on FB password length? Are there ways to further improve our security? Any insight would be helpful... Thanks, Lane Campbell NW Software
