MariaDB Server and MariaDB MaxScale provide a secure, high-performance database platform. Some aspects of security go into MariaDB Server and some into MariaDB MaxScale. This blog post describes one of the security features of MariaDB MaxScale: the Database Firewall filter.

MariaDB MaxScale is a powerful tool mostly used for database load balancing and as such has many benefits, which we covered in our webinar about advanced database proxies.
