Database Audit · St Davids

Database Audit in St Davids

A database audit for St Davids organisations, covering the finding that makes everybody uncomfortable — the test environment is usually a copy of production, complete with real customer records, held somewhere with looser access and weaker monitoring. The performance work matters too, but that copy is the thing worth addressing first.

Why this comes up

The problem

The staging database is last month's production copy, and half the development team has full access to it.

What you get

What we deliver

  • Non-production copies identified, with what real data each contains
  • Direct access reviewed — who can query production and whether they still need to
  • Schema examined for missing constraints that permit invalid data to accumulate
  • Indexing and query performance assessed against how the application actually behaves
  • Growth projected, so capacity decisions happen before a disk fills
  • Backup and point-in-time recovery verified rather than taken on trust

Thirty minutes, no charge, no sales script. You leave with a written summary of what database audit would actually involve — whether or not you use us.

Database Audit in St Davids — common questions

Why are production copies such a problem?
Because the data carries the same obligations in a test environment and almost none of the protection. Real names, addresses and payment references sit somewhere with looser access, weaker monitoring and frequently no backup — and a breach there is exactly as reportable.
What should be done instead?
Mask or generate the data. Realistic but synthetic records support development perfectly well, and where genuine data is unavoidable for a specific test it should be a deliberate, time-limited exception with the access recorded rather than the standing arrangement.
Why look at constraints?
Because the database is the last place bad data can be stopped. Where the application is the only thing enforcing rules, every import, script and integration can write records that should not exist — and by the time anybody notices there are thousands of them.
Is performance part of this?
Yes, and it is often the least expensive finding to act on. A handful of missing indexes commonly accounts for most of the load on a struggling database, and identifying them is considerably cheaper than the larger instance that was about to be purchased instead.
Do you work with businesses across Pembrokeshire?
Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout Wales, including St Davids and the surrounding Pembrokeshire area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
What kind of St Davids businesses do you usually work with?
Simple booking and payment systems for very small hospitality and tourism operators on the Pembrokeshire coast. Beyond that we work across Tourism & Heritage, Hospitality, Agriculture, Marine and Retail.
Do you cover the areas around St Davids?
Yes — we work throughout Wales, including Swansea, Cardiff. St Davids is an urban area of roughly 1,600+, and we take on work across the wider Pembrokeshire region rather than the city boundary alone.
