Funny. In all the companies I worked at so far I added very long random tokens into the databases, which only get returned when dumping the entire database. They specifically are added in a way, and the queries made in a way, that those entries are never returned.
A separate container monitors all traffic returned by the databases and if those tokens are detected, the databases are essentially shut down by disabling the port of the database until it is manually unlocked again.
Funnily enough, I was working at an auction platform and a few times the databases stopped responding. Everyone way furious until I shared why the databases stopped responding.. :-)
