Basic Security Considerations

There are some important security considerations that are fundamental to using any application securely:

• Install the software securely. For example, when applicable use property firewalls, secure protocols using TLS (SSL), and follow best practices for passwords.
• Keep the software up to date by installing the latest product releases and patches as soon as possible. See the Critical Patch Updates and Security Alerts website, located at https://www.oracle.com/security-alerts/ to access this information.
• Limit user access to necessary job functions. Review user privileges periodically to determine relevance to current work requirements.
