Oracle Database Security and the
Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard

Oracle Database security provides powerful data protection and access control solutions to address PCI-DSS 1.1 requirements. Oracle Database Vault prevents highly privileged users from accessing the credit card information and helps reduce the risk of insider threats with separation of duty, multi-factor authorization and command rules. Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) provides the industry's most advanced database encryption solution, enabling encryption of credit card numbers with complete transparency to the existing application. Oracle Audit Vault consolidates and protects database audit data from across the enterprise. Oracle Audit Vault reports and alerts provide pro-active notification of access to credit card information. Oracle Enterprise Manager provides secure configuration scanning to insure your databases stay configured securely. Oracle Label Security extends user security authorizations to help enforce the need-to-know principle.

Chapter PCI 1.1 requirement Matching Oracle Feature
 
Build and Maintain a Secure Network
1. Install and maintain a firewall configuration to protect data
 
2. Do not use vendor-supplied defaults for system passwords and other security parameters
Hackers (external and internal to a company) often use vendor default passwords and other vendor default settings to compromise systems. These passwords and settings are well known in hacker communities and easily determined via public information.
2.1: Always change the vendor-supplied defaults before you install a system on the network (for example, passwords, Simple Network Management Protocol [SNMP] community strings, and elimination of unnecessary accounts). Oracle locks and expires default accounts and passwords during installation. Passwords for administration accounts are prompted for during installation.
2.2: Develop configuration standards for all system components. Assure that these standards address all known security vulnerabilities and are consistent with industry-accepted system hardening standards as defined, for example, by SysAdmin Audit Network Security Network (SANS), National Institute of Standards Technology (NIST), and Center for Internet Security (CIS). Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Pack ships the Center for Internet Security (CIS) benchmark out-of-the-box, enabling customers who have the configuration pack to scan their enterprise databases for compliance.
  2.2.3: Configure system security parameters to prevent misuse. Follow Oracle Database secure configuration guideline. Monitor with the Oracle Enterprise Manager Configuration Pack.

Oracle Audit Vault consolidates audit data from across Oracle databases.

Oracle Audit Vault can report and alert on audit data.

Oracle Database Vault Separation of Duty prevents unauthorized administrative actions in the Oracle Database.
2.2.4: Remove all unnecessary functionality, such as scripts, drivers, features, subsystems, file systems (for example, unnecessary Web servers). Oracle Database custom installation allows specific components to be installed or removed.
2.3: Encrypt all non-console administrative access. Use technologies such as SSH, VPN, or SSL/TLS (transport layer security) for web-based management and other non-console administrative access. Oracle Advanced Security Option provides network encryption (SSL and native) to encrypt all traffic over SQL*Net between the middle tier and the database, between clients and the database and between databases. Additionally, some administrative tools such as Enterprise Manager provide a restricted use SSL license to protect administrative traffic.
2.4: Hosting providers must protect each entity's hosted environment and data. These providers must meet specific requirements as detailed in Appendix A: "PCI DSS Applicability for Hosting Providers." See Appendix A:
 
Protect Cardholder Data
3: Protect stored cardholder data
Encryption is a critical component of cardholder data protection. If an intruder circumvents other network security controls and gains access to encrypted data, without the proper cryptographic keys, the data is unreadable and unusable to that person. Other effective methods of protecting stored data should be considered as potential risk mitigation opportunities. For example, methods for minimizing risk include not storing cardholder data unless absolutely necessary, truncating cardholder data if full PAN is not needed, and not sending PAN in unencrypted emails.
3.3: Mask PAN when displayed (the first six and last four digits are the maximum number of digits to be displayed).
Note: This requirement does not apply to employees and other parties with a specific need to see the full PAN; nor does the requirement supersede stricter requirements in place for displays of cardholder data (for example, for point of sale [POS] receipts).
Application specific; Applications can leverage Virtual Private Database (VPD) with a column relevant policy to mask out the entire number. If the application stores the number in different fields VPD can be used to mask out the relevant parts of the number by field.

Security attributes provided by Oracle Label Security label factors can help determine who should have access to the number.

Oracle Database Vault Realms can be used to prevent highly privileged users from accessing any application data.
3.4: Render PAN, at minimum, unreadable anywhere it is stored (including data on portable digital media, backup media, in logs, and data received from or stored by wireless networks) by using any of the following approaches:
  • One-way hashes (hashed indexes)
  • Truncation
  • Index tokens and pads, (pads must be securely stored)
  • Strong cryptography with associated key management processes and procedures
The MINIMUM account information that needs to be rendered unreadable is the PAN.
If for some reason, a company is unable to encrypt cardholder data, refer to Appendix B: "Compensating Controls for Encryption of Stored Data."
Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) can be used to encrypt the number on media and backup. Optionally TDE can be used with Oracle RMAN to encrypt the entire backup when backed up to disk.

Oracle Secure Backup provides a solution for backing up and encrypting directly to tape storage.

Encryption algorithms supported include AES and 3DES with 128, 192 (default), or 256 bit key length.

Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) has key management built-in. Encrypted column data stays encrypted in the data files, undo logs, and redo logs, as well as in the buffer cache of the system global area (SGA). SHA-1 and MD5 are used for integrity.
3.5: Protect encryption keys used for encryption of cardholder data against both disclosure and misuse. Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) keys are stored in the database and encrypted using a separate master key that is stored in the Oracle Wallet, a PKCS#12 file on the operating system.

The Oracle Wallet is encrypted using the wallet password; in order to open the wallet from within the database requires the 'alter system' privilege.

Oracle Database Vault command rules can be implemented to further restrict who, when, and where the 'alter system' privilege can be executed.
  3.5.1: Restrict access to keys to the fewest number of custodians necessary Customer internal policy enabled by Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE).

TDE requires at least one designated individual to have access to the Wallet password. (DBA or Security DBA)

Oracle Database Vault command rules can be implemented to restrict who, when, and where the 'alter system' privilege can be executed.
3.5.2: Store keys securely in the fewest possible locations and forms Customer internal policy enabled by Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE).

There is only one master key per database. The key can be stored in the Oracle Wallet.

Oracle Database 11g TDE integrates with PKCS#11 compliant hardware vendors for centralized master key generation and management.
  3.6.1: Generation of strong keys Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) uses a FIPS certified RNG (random number generator); master key can also be generated using certificates or PKI key pairs.
3.6.2: Secure key distribution (Customer internal policy).

In distributed environments (incl. Real Application Clusters), the wallet needs to be copied to all participating RAC instances and opened.
3.6.3: Secure key storage Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) table keys are stored in the database, encrypted with the master key, which is stored in the Oracle Wallet.

The wallet can be stored on an external USB device (memory stick), or on a separate hardware platform such as a Linux box with higher security protections.

Oracle Database 11g supports generating and managing the master encryption key on a hardware security module (HSM) device.
3.6.4: Periodic changing of keys:
  • As deemed necessary and recommended by the associated application (for example, re-keying); preferably automatically
  • At least annually
Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) provides the ability to independently re-key the master and/or table keys.
3.6.5: Destruction of old keys Master keys should not be deleted from the wallet due to backup and recovery requirements.
3.6.6: Split knowledge and establishment of dual control of keys (so that it requires two or three people, each knowing only their part of the key, to reconstruct the whole key) Oracle Database Vault can be used to enforce two person login requirement during execution of the alter system command used to open the TDE wallet.

For Oracle E-Business Suite, see metalink note 338756.1
3.6.7: Prevention of unauthorized substitution of keys Enforced by Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE)
3.6.8: Replacement of known or suspected compromised keys (see 3.6.4)
3.6.9: Revocation of old or invalid keys (see 3.6.5)
 
4: Encrypt transmission of cardholder data across open, public networks
Sensitive information must be encrypted during transmission over networks that are easy and common for a hacker to intercept, modify, and divert data while in transit.
4.1: Use strong cryptography and security protocols such as secure sockets layer (SSL) / transport layer security (TLS) and Internet protocol security (IPSEC) to safeguard sensitive cardholder data during transmission over open, public networks.
Examples of open, public networks that are in scope of the PCI DSS are the Internet, WiFi (IEEE 802.11x), global system for mobile communications (GSM), and general packet radio service (GPRS).
Both Oracle Database and Oracle Fusion Middleware support encryption of network traffic using SSL/TLS.

For the Oracle Database, SSL/TLS support is provided by the Oracle Advanced Security option.
 
Maintain a Vulnerability Management Program
5. Use and regularly update anti-virus software or programs
 
6. Develop and maintain secure systems and applications
Unscrupulous individuals use security vulnerabilities to gain privileged access to systems. Many of these vulnerabilities are fixed by vendor-provided security patches. All systems must have the most recently released, appropriate software patches to protect against exploitation by employees, external hackers, and viruses. Note: Appropriate software patches are those patches that have been evaluated and tested sufficiently to determine that the patches do not conflict with existing security configurations. For in-house developed applications, numerous vulnerabilities can be avoided by using standard system development processes and secure coding techniques.
6.1: Ensure that all system components and software have the latest vendor-supplied security patches installed. Install relevant security patches within one month of release. Automated by Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control
6.2: Establish a process to identify newly discovered security vulnerabilities (for example, subscribe to alert services freely available on the Internet). Update standards to address new vulnerability issues. (Customer internal policy)

Subscribe to the 'Electronic Subscriptions' section on OTN and be sure to check the box next to the Oracle Security Alerts and click 'Continue' to confirm.
6.4: Follow change control procedures for all system and software configuration changes. The procedures must include the following: Change control procedures can be automated with Oracle Enterprise Manager Change Control. Also BPEL Process manager can be used for process management of change control, security procedures in general.
  6.5.1: Unvalidated input Addressed by 'dbms_assert'
6.5.6: Injection flaws (for example, structured query language (SQL) injection) Addressed by 'dbms_assert'
6.5.8: Insecure storage Oracle Advanced Security Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) can be used to encrypt the number on media and backup. Optionally TDE can be used with Oracle RMAN to encrypt the entire backup when backed up to disk. Oracle Secure Backup provides a solution for backing up and encrypting directly to tape storage. Encryption algorithms supported include 3DES168 and AES with 128, 192 (default), or 256 bit key length.
6.5.10: Insecure configuration management Oracle Enterprise Management Configuration Pack provides secure configuration scanning and the Center for Internet Security (CIS) benchmark.
 
Implement Strong Access Control Measures
7. Restrict access to cardholder data by business need-to-know
This requirement ensures critical data can only be accessed by authorized personnel.
7.1: Limit access to computing resources and cardholder information only to those individuals whose job requires such access. Oracle Database Vault realms restrict access to application / cardholder data from highly privileged users / DBA.

Oracle Database Vault factors and commands rules enable strict controls on access to applications, data and databases.

Oracle Database Vault Separation of Duty prevents unauthorized administrative actions in the Oracle Database.

Oracle Label Security label factors provide additional security attributes for determining need-to-know.

Oracle Virtual Private Database provides complete masking based on need-to-know.

Oracle Database object privileges and database roles provide basic security.

Oracle Identity Management provides enterprise user provisioning to computing resources.
7.2: Establish a mechanism for systems with multiple users that restricts access based on a user's need to know and is set to "deny all" unless specifically allowed. Oracle Database Vault realms restrict access to application / cardholder data from highly privileged users / DBA.

Oracle Database Vault factors and commands rules enable strict controls on access to applications, data and databases.

8. Assign a unique ID to each person with computer access
Assigning a unique identification (ID) to each person with access ensures that actions taken on critical data and systems are performed by, and can be traced to, known and authorized users.
8.1: Identify all users with a unique user name before allowing them to access system components or cardholder data. Oracle Database authentication supports unique user name authentication for dedicated user accounts, shared schemas and proxy authentication.

Oracle Identity Management provides enterprise user provisioning.
8.2: In addition to assigning a unique ID, employ at least one of the following methods to authenticate all users:
  • Password
  • Token devices (e.g., SecureID, certificates, or public key)
  • Biometrics
Oracle Advanced Security Option provides strong authentication via Kerberos, PKI, and RADIUS.
8.3: Implement two-factor authentication for remote access to the network by employees, administrators, and third parties. Use technologies such as remote authentication and dial-in service (RADIUS) or terminal access controller access control system (TACACS) with tokens; or VPN (based on SSL/TLS or IPSEC) with individual certificates. Oracle Advanced Security Option provides strong authentication via Kerberos, PKI, and RADIUS.
8.4: Encrypt all passwords during transmission and storage on all system components. Oracle Database encrypts database user passwords transmitted on the wire and stored in the database.
8.5: Ensure proper user authentication and password management for non-consumer users and administrators on all system components as follows: Oracle Identity Management

9. Restrict physical access to cardholder data
 
Regularly Monitor and Test Networks
10. Track and monitor all access to network resources and cardholder data
Logging mechanisms and the ability to track user activities are critical. The presence of logs in all environments allows thorough tracking and analysis if something does go wrong. Determining the cause of a compromise is very difficult without system activity logs.
10.1: Establish a process for linking all access to system components (especially access done with administrative privileges such as root) to each individual user. (Customer internal policy); Establish separate DBA accounts in the database. Optionally use proxy authentication to limit number of accounts with DBA privilege but still audit.

Appendix A: PCI DSS Applicability for Hosting Providers
A: Hosting providers protect cardholder data environment
As referenced in Requirement 12.8, all service providers with access to cardholder data (including hosting providers) must adhere to the PCI DSS. In addition, Requirement 2.4 states that hosting providers must protect each entity's hosted environment and data. Therefore, hosting providers must give special consideration to the following:
A.1: Protect each entity's (that is merchant, service provider, or other entity) hosted environment and data, as in A.1.1 through A.1.4:
  A.1.1: Ensure that each entity only has access to own cardholder data environment. Oracle Database Vault realms restrict access to application / cardholder data from highly privileged users / DBA.

A hosting provider must fulfill these requirements as well as all other relevant sections of the PCI DSS.
Note: Even though a hosting provider may meet these requirements, the compliance of the entity that uses the hosting provider is not necessarily guaranteed. Each entity must comply with the PCI DSS and validate compliance as applicable.
 
Appendix B: Compensating Controls
B: Compensating Controls for Requirement 3.4
For companies unable to render cardholder data unreadable (for example, by encryption) due to technical constraints or business limitations, compensating controls may be considered. Only companies that have undertaken a risk analysis and have legitimate technological or documented business constraints can consider the use of compensating controls to achieve compliance.

Companies that consider compensating controls for rendering cardholder data unreadable must understand the risk to the data posed by maintaining readable cardholder data. Generally, the controls must provide additional protection to mitigate any additional risk posed by maintaining readable cardholder data. The controls considered must be in addition to controls required in the PCI DSS, and must satisfy the "Compensating Controls" definition in the PCI DSS Glossary. Compensating controls may consist of either a device or combination of devices, applications, and controls that meet all of the following conditions:
B.2: Provide ability to restrict access to cardholder data or databases based on the following criteria:
  • IP address/Mac address
  • Application/service
  • User accounts/groups
