Database Audit Work Program

This tool includes two sample audit programs that provide steps organizations can take to perform a database administration review audit.

Sample steps include: ensure that passwords are unique and renewed regularly, ensure password encryption, ensure that object privileges that grant a user the right to access and possibly manipulate data within an object or the right to execute stored procedures exist, ensure that product profiles exist that limit user access to certain database commands or products, and ensure that roles are created and assigned to users as a means of granting them the necessary privileges to perform their duties.
