Audit in 60 days — sound familiar?
- ▸ Caching_sha2 auth migration stalled — Apps still on mysql_native_password break against MySQL 8.0+; the migration is risky and nobody's mapped which app services need credential rotation.
- ▸ Audit logging not enabled — MySQL Enterprise Audit or MariaDB Audit Plugin not configured; you can't prove who accessed which schema during the last incident.
- ▸ Privilege bloat — Service accounts with ALL PRIVILEGES granted "temporarily" 3 years ago; nobody's done a least-privilege audit and the SOC 2 reviewer is asking.
JusDB MySQL security audit: 2-week assessment + written report mapped to PCI-DSS / HIPAA / SOC 2. Book an audit scoping call →
MySQL Security Audit — CIS Benchmark, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, SOC 2
In short: A MySQL security audit reviews 12 control areas — TDE encryption-at-rest, TLS enforcement, caching_sha2_password authentication, the MySQL/MariaDB Audit Plugin, Enterprise Firewall, least-privilege role and GRANT cleanup, binlog encryption, and public-exposure review — then delivers a written report with severity-ranked findings, remediation roadmap, and PCI-DSS / HIPAA / SOC 2 control mapping.
Production MySQL security audit covering TDE, mysql_native_password → caching_sha2_password upgrade, MySQL Audit Plugin, MySQL Enterprise Firewall. Written report with severity-ranked findings, compliance-framework control mapping, and a 12-month remediation roadmap. Designed for teams preparing for PCI-DSS v4.0, HIPAA, or SOC 2 Type II audit windows.
What We Audit
12 control areas, fully assessed
Every audit covers these MySQL-specific controls. Findings are severity-ranked (Critical / High / Medium / Low) with remediation effort estimates and compliance-framework mapping.
Compliance Mapping
Every finding mapped to a framework
The audit report includes a control-mapping matrix so your compliance team can hand it directly to an auditor without re-translating the findings.
| Framework | Scope | Coverage |
|---|---|---|
| PCI-DSS v4.0 | Cardholder data systems | Encryption-at-rest, TLS for transport, audit logging, access control, vulnerability management |
| HIPAA Security Rule | PHI databases | Access control, encryption, audit logs, integrity validation, transmission security |
| SOC 2 Type II | Customer data systems | Security, availability, confidentiality — continuous control testing over 6+ months |
| ISO 27001:2022 | Information security management | Annex A controls 5.x-8.x covering DB access, cryptography, supplier relationships |
| GDPR Article 32 | EU personal data | Pseudonymisation, encryption, confidentiality, integrity, availability, resilience |
| CIS Database Benchmark | Hardening reference | Engine-specific CIS benchmarks (Level 1 + Level 2) — operational baseline |
