Change Auditor for SQL Server 7.4 - User Guide

SQL Data Level Auditing page

The SQL Data Level Auditing page is displayed when SQL Data Level is selected from the Auditing task list in the navigation pane of the Administration Tasks tab. From this page you can launch the SQL Data Level Auditing wizard to specify the SQL instances and the operations to audit. You can also edit existing templates and remove templates that are no longer being used.

The SQL Data Level Auditing page contains an expandable view of all the SQL Data Level Auditing templates that have been defined. To add a new template, click the Add tool bar button. Once added, the following information is provided for each template:

SQL Data Level Auditing templates

To enable SQL Data Level auditing in Change Auditor, you must create a SQL Data Level auditing template which specifies the SQL server, Instance, and the database to audit. Change Auditor agents must be installed on SQL servers/SQL cluster nodes before configuring their templates.

For example:

For a new event, data in the PERSON.NAME, PERSON.PAYGRADE and PERSON.ADDRESS fields will display as "***".

2
Click Auditing.
3
Select SQL Data level (under the Applications heading in the Auditing task list) to open the SQL Data Level Auditing page.
4
Click Add to open the SQL Data Level auditing wizard which will step you through the process of creating a template.
Select the Default option to audit the default instance.
Select the Named option to audit a named instance.
Enter the credentials required for the agent to access the SQL sever. Click Test credentials to ensure the specified database can be opened on the target server.
In the Filter where fields, enter the operator and value to be used in the filter. In the first field (left) use the drop-down menu to select the operator (In, Not in, Like or Not Like; =, !=). The operators listed are based on the entry selected in the Filters list above. In the second field (right) enter the value or string to be used in the filter.
Click Add to add it to the Filter list at the bottom of the page.
NOTE: To add multiple filters, select the column filter row after which the new filter is to be added, and then specify whether all criteria must be met or only some of the criteria.

If
Join filters with AND is selected, all filters specified must be satisfied before an event can be audited. If Join filters with OR is selected, only one of the specified filters needs to be satisfied.

On the next page of the wizard, you can specify the columns within a table that are deemed to potentially include sensitive information. Select Refresh Columns to update the data. Once these columns are identified, their data will not be recorded in the database and will display in the Event Details pane as “***” to maintain privacy.
9
Clicking Finish creates the template, close the wizard, and return to the SQL DL Auditing page, where the newly created template will now be listed.
3
Click Finish to save the changes.

The disable feature allows you to temporarily stop auditing the specified SQL instance without having to remove the auditing template or individual SQL instance from a template.

Place your cursor in the Status cell for the template to be disabled, click the arrow control and select Disabled.
The entry in the Status column for the template will change to ‘Disabled’.
2
To re-enable the auditing template, use the Enable option in either the Status cell or right-click menu.
