In this digital landscape, SQL and relational databases form the backbone of virtually all critical infrastructure in the United States. The organization and security of those databases, however, is dependent on the manner of their construction, which determines how data is accessed and protected. Your team's ability to construct and manage a database effectively is therefore critical.

In this course, you will approach database design from a perspective focused on data security and integrity. You will go from learning how to approach general security to understanding how to properly execute modifications so that data integrity is preserved.
