Mobile databases are gaining popularity as portable devices have become need based and common. One key aspect of these database systems is their ability to deal with disconnection. Many businesses today are no longer solely conducting business within the confines of their buildings. They have employees who travel, who work in different geographic areas, or occasionally work from home. Many organizations allow the mobile workers to carry their sensitive data outside the physical boundaries in order to increase the productivity and revenue. But when the device is not protected properly all the data stored in the device will be exposed to outsiders including competitors. So security for the database that resides in the mobile device is the major concern for such type of organizations. In order to secure the mobile database a secured architecture is proposed in this paper.
