Purpose

Oracle Label Security controls the display of individual table rows using labels that are assigned to specific individual table rows and application users. With well configured OLS security it is possible to design and deploy complex security requirements without the use of complex code and complex maintenance.

Benefits of Oracle Label Security: Oracle Label Security provides several benefits for controlling row level management.

Enables row level data classification and provides out-of-the-box access mediation based on the data classification and the user label authorization or security clearance.
Enables assignment of label authorizations or security clearances to both database users and application users.
Provides both APIs and a graphical user interface for defining and storing data classification labels and user label authorizations.
Integrates with Oracle Database Vault and Oracle Advanced Security Data Redaction, enabling security clearances to be use in both Database Vault command rules and Data Redaction policy definitions.
