In light of yesterday's w32.SQLExp.Worm virus that's purpose was to target SQL 7 and SQL 2000 servers, I wanted to check if there are security precautions that R:Tango developers should be taking to protects our applications.
Various questions come to mind such as: 1) Does the ODBC driver provide any sort of protection? Should we be locating particular ODBC related files in certain locations? 2) Does locating our databases on a separate server provide an additional layer of protection? Or doesn't it matter? 3) What precautions can we take to protect our applications and databases? I especially think of the HIPPA posts and all the government privacy regulations.
