Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: auditing is my friend
Hi Paul,
Have a look at the paper i wrote for security focus a few months ago, called "An Introduction to simple Oracle auditing" - there is a link to it on my site - http://www.petefinnigan.com/orasec.htm - its the second paper on there. It is not in-depth but concentrates on the benefits of just turning audit on and gives examples of SQL to find a few abuses, such as logins out of hours, users sharing accounts, attempts to use accounts that do not exist etc - as i say just basic ideas. I agree its well worth just turning audit on and seeing what can be learned from just audit session for instance!.
Kind regards
Pete
