Guideline for Using Default Auditing of SQL Statements and Privileges

When you create a new database, you can enable the auditing of a select set of SQL statements and privileges. Oracle recommends that you enable default auditing. Auditing is an effective method of enforcing strong internal controls so that your site meets its regulatory compliance requirements. See "Using Default Auditing for Security-Relevant SQL Statements and Privileges" for more information about default auditing.
