NoSQL Databases and Security
Jeff Darcy writes about NoSQL systems’ security (actually the lack of):
Most NoSQL stores have no concept of security. […] Mostly it falls into two categories: encryption and authentication/authorization (collectively “auth”). For encryption, there’s a further distinction to be made between on-the-wire and at-rest encryption.
As far as I know:
- CouchDB supports authentication/authorization
- Yahoo! recently contributed to Hadoop an authentication module based on Kerberos and SASL
What about the others?
