Restricted utility access
Some database utilities allow access to decrypted data for maintenance and repair. To prevent database utilities from becoming a "back door" for circumventing encryption policies, access to certain utilities is restricted to authenticated database administrators. In general, utilities that manage encryption policies and the key store, and utilities that can provide a clear-text version of encrypted data are restricted. For the following list of utilities, access is denied to all users except an authenticated Database Administrator:
*PROUTIL EPOLICY
*PROUTIL ENABLEENCRYPTION
*PROUTIL DISABLEENCRYPTION
*PROUTIL TABLEMOVE
*PROUTIL IDXMOVE
*PROUTIL TRUNCATE BI
*PROUTIL DUMP (binary dump)
*RFUTIL AIMAGE BEGIN
*DBTOOL
