Abstract

Protecting data and system integrity is critical for any database, and especially critical for flexible, distributed systems like Dynamo. Dynamo is a highly flexible and distributed database system specifically created to cater to the requirements of contemporary web-scale applications. As with any database system, ensuring security is overriding to protect sensitive data and hold the integrity of the system. This paper explorer a range of methods for enhancing the security of DynamoDB, covering access control policies, encryption methods, auditing and monitoring systems, data integrity measures, and authentication mechanism.
