SECURITY AUDITING


Auditing, a means of monitoring the effectiveness of your security policies, is a critical aspect of system security. Any security policy must maintain a record of system activity to ensure that users are held accountable for their actions. Auditing helps determine unauthorized user behavior that may not otherwise be prevented. It is particularly useful to ensure that authorized system users do not abuse their privileges. Fine-grained auditing can serve as an "early warning system" of users misusing data access privileges, as well as an intrusion detection system for the database itself.
