It was my first experience with FireBird. I must say that for me it seems insecure. Whole database is stored in one file, and if you have this file, you can easily open it without need for any password.

GUI for FireBird DB
Friend of mine, that is still working on xBase (Clipper), asked me to recommend him a good GUI tool for SQL database. At first I didn't know what he exactly wanted. In fact he wanted a tool to retrive and manipulate data in FireBird DB. After trying few tools I recommended IB_SQL. It's realy light weighted and intuitive.

Thanks for intresting link, Paweł
In last 2 days I’ve notice new stream of visitors coming from Firebird News/. It's amazing how many new readers you can get when you get to first page. And I’ve wrote just short note.

Firebird's no less secure than Oracle, DB2, Sybase, Postgres, Mysql...
If you can get to their physical files, you can read them too!
Filesystem security - it's a handy thing!
