Auditing,
Compliance, Governance, SarbOx PCI, GLB, HIPAA, FACTA, PIPEDA, Basel II
|
 |
Ten years ago security equated
with users having passwords. Auditing was a big deal, and
compliance was not even on the radar screen. Today we live
in a world where Sarbanes-Oxley, FACTA, HIPAA, PIPEDA, and
Basel II are spoken with fear and loathing and where we
all know that the only reason we "comply" is the
ignorance of our corporate leadership. Lets change that
before things become even worse.
|
Here's what we cover:
- The reality of what
compliance with these laws means
- The technologies that we
can use to achieve compliance
- Auditing SELECT
statements with Fine Grained Auditing
- Auditing the tools and
applications used to access the database
- Stopping non-compliant
access

Compliance
Every country, every state, and even some
municipalities have their own rules. Our job is to
get something done while complying with all of
them.
This discussion
focuses on the major legal requirements, their
implications, and the various techniques that can
be used to create a compliant environment, audit
activities, and enforce governmental and business
rules. The discussion includes the use of
cryptography.

Lab
1 |
Fine
Grained Auditing
Oracle added fine grained auditing to the 9i
database and enhanced it 10g
and 11g. This hands-on
lab teaches how to define application code from
business requirements and how to implement them
using the DBMS_FGA built-in package. |
| 8:00-9:00pm |
Lab
2 |
After
Logon Triggers
After logon system event triggers can be used
to monitor who logs on, what they access, when
they access it, the tool used, and to kill policy
violating sessions.
This hands-on
session teaches the skills required to build
System Event Triggers, and the user environment
variables and data dictionary objects that can be
used to verify compliance.
