Enabling Auditing in Oracle
To enable auditing and direct audit records to the database audit trail, we need to do the following.
Login as a sys user and execute the below mentioned SQL command and then restart the database.
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET audit_trail=db SCOPE=SPFILE; System altered. SQL> SHUTDOWN Database closed. Database dismounted. ORACLE instance shut down. SQL> STARTUP ORACLE instance started. Total System Global Area 289406976 bytes Fixed Size 1248600 bytes Variable Size 71303848 bytes Database Buffers 213909504 bytes Redo Buffers 2945024 bytes Database mounted. Database opened. SQL>
Enabling Audit on the Oracle Database:
Enable auditing as per your requirements. The minimum that should be audited is:
- User logon and logoff events (both successful and failed).
- Database structure changes (CREATE, ALTER, DROP statements).
- All actions on sensitive objects.
- And if need be, all actions done by a specific user, such as the DBA.
- Check that the audit trail is working, by running this command by logging in as a user who has SELECT access on AUD$ table:
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM SYS.AUD$
