Abstract: Provided are devices and methods for retroactively changing time sheets. In one example, the method includes detecting a change to an attribute associated with a time sheet stored in a database, splitting the time sheet into a first portion of time before the attribute changed and a second portion of time after the attribute changed, retroactively applying the change of the attribute to the second portion of time and preserving the attribute for the first portion of time to generate modified time sheet data, and updating the time sheet stored in the database based on the modified time sheet data to implement the retroactively applied change. Accordingly, the system described herein may automatically identify and process retroactive changes to a time sheet that has already been submitted and stored in a database.

Abstract: For mitigation of injection security attacks against non-relational databases, a database driver layer is integrated with a security layer. A trigger associated with the security layer is set to implement a learning phase of the security layer. In response to enabling the trigger, queries and query parameters associated with the respective queries are received. For the queries, a previously-stored security pattern is identified based on the query and the associated query parameters. The trigger associated with the security layer is reset to implement an execution of the security patterns. In response to resetting the trigger, an additional query and additional query parameters associated with the additional query is received. A particular security pattern is identified that is associated with the additional query and the additional query parameters. At least one of the additional query parameters is determined to not match a corresponding query parameter of the particular security pattern.
