Description
DBMS data files may contain database objects supporting different applications. Shared resources and access to storage locations may lead to one application being vulnerable to the exploit or resource needs of the other. Dedicating data files to each application provides a means to separate by privilege assignment and resource quotas and protect one application from security issues of another.
