This illustration depicts a distributed database using Oracle Label Security. At the WESTERN_REGION database, the installed Oracle Label Security policy is HR. At the EASTERN_REGION database, the installed Oracle Label Security policies are HR and DEFENSE. The WESTERN_REGION and EASTERN_REGION are subgroups of the group HQ.
