Top Six Database Attacks
According to DarkReading:
It takes the average attacker less than 10 seconds to hack in and out of a database -- hardly enough time for the database administrator even notice the intruder. So it’s no surprise that many database attacks go unnoticed by organizations until long after the data has been compromised.
Hackers' top six database attacks:
1. Brute-force (or not) cracking of weak or default usernames/passwords

4. Targeting unpatched database vulnerabilities
5. SQL injection
6. Stolen backup (unencrypted) tapes
