Runbook - 05 Legacy App AI Extension

Objective

Show how to extend a legacy application with an AI agent without rewriting all application authorization logic.

Security Value

Enables AI modernization without opening the whole schema.
Reduces risk from overprivileged legacy technical accounts.
Shows that the AI agent receives only the data authorized for the persona.

Prerequisites

Oracle AI Database compatible with Oracle Deep Data Security.
SQLcl or SQL*Plus.
A legacy application narrative, such as CRM, billing, support, or contracts.

Before - Vulnerable Environment

Reset the scenario:

@scenarios/05-legacy-app-ai-extension/sql/99_reset.sql

Create the legacy dataset and accounts:

@scenarios/05-legacy-app-ai-extension/sql/00_schema.sql
@scenarios/05-legacy-app-ai-extension/sql/01_seed_data.sql
@scenarios/05-legacy-app-ai-extension/sql/02_identities.sql

Simulate the AI agent question:

List all high-risk customers, margin, renewals, legal clauses, and private support notes.

Run the broad queries:

@scenarios/05-legacy-app-ai-extension/sql/04_test_queries.sql

Expected Result Before

Commercial data, margin, legal hold, legal clauses, and private support notes may appear together.
The technical account or AI agent can access too much data if the application does not filter correctly.
The customer sees the risk of adding AI on top of legacy data without database-level controls.

After - Applying Deep Data Security

Apply data grants by persona:

@scenarios/05-legacy-app-ai-extension/sql/03_data_grants.sql

Run the same query as joao, ana, maria, and sofia, or propagate those identities through the agent:
```
@scenarios/05-legacy-app-ai-extension/sql/04_test_queries.sql
```

Expected Result After

joao sees his portfolio without margin or legal hold.
ana sees Brazil customers and regional commercial metrics.
maria sees support-relevant data without margin, legal clauses, or private notes.
sofia sees contracts and legal clauses for legal-hold customers.
The AI agent can no longer consolidate everything into one abusive answer.

Demo Evidence

AI agent response before and after protection.
SQL output by persona.
Explanation of "no full authorization rewrite": the database becomes the common enforcement point.
