Excerpt from description of IBM's new DB2 Universal Database Version 5.2

IBM's DB2 Universal Database is a relational database management system that is fully Web-enabled, scalable from single processors to symmetric multiprocessors and to massively parallel clusters; and features multimedia capabilities with image, audio, video, text and other advanced object relational support. <snip>

Security enhancements
Security additions include support for Open Software Foundation's Distributed Computing Environment (DCE). The DCE architecture is available to manage users, passwords, and groups more easily, and authenticate users more securely. DB2 also provides a *Trusted Clients option* to choose whether to trust all clients or only those that come from an operating system with inherent security.
