Audit

Question: Hello,

Can someone tell me what the difference between Security Audit Log and AIS is.

Thanks

Answer:
Security Audit log will record events corresponding to user defined filters - e.g. dialog logon, transaction start.

AIS is a list of reports which can be used for some system audit tasks. In no way should AIS be relied on, however there are some useful (standard) reports which can be used as part of an auditing framework.
