I don’t think it is a DBA problem. It’s a (senior) management problem, who don’t consider security a priority. Unfortunately security is measured by what doesn’t happen. No-one is going to say to a DBA “Congratualtions, no-one stole data from us this year. Here’s a 10% pay rise.”. Instead they say “Great, we reduced the number of days the database was down for maintenance by 5%.”
