Monitoring use of APPS database account
Hello,
We are a med device manufacturing company and are regulated SOX (in addition to the FDSA) running EBS 9.3.1, on Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.4.0 - 64bit
The security of the APPS database account and who has access, and how it's monitored is becoming a concern to our board and financial auditing company.
I was wondering how other SOX regulated companies are controlling and monitoring the use of the APPS account.
- Is the password known and account used by multiple people in you company, or is it restricted to a small group of individuals.
- Do you have comparable read only accounts to troubleshoot issues and then use the apps account only for data manipulation?
