The Internal Audit Association lists the following as key components of a database audit: Create an inventory of all database systems and use classifications. This should include production and test data. Keep it up-to-date. Classify data risk within the database systems. Monitoring should be prioritized for high, medium, and low risk data. Implement an access request process that requires database owners to authorize the "roles" granted to database accounts (roles as in Role Based Access and not the native database roles). Analyze access authority. Users with higher degrees of access permission should be under higher scrutiny, and any account for which access has been suspended should be monitored to ensure access is denieA, Dttempts are identified. Assess application coverage. Determine what applications have built-in controls, and prioritize database auditing accordingly. All privileged user access must have audit priority. Legacy and custom applications are the next highest priority to consider, followed by the packaged applications. Ensure technical safeguards. Make sure access controls are set properly. Audit the activities. Monitor data changes and modifications to the database structure, permission and user changes, and data viewing activities. Consider using network-based database activity monitoring appliances instead of native database audit trails. Archive, analyze, review, and report audit information. Reports to auditors and IT managers must communicate relevant audit information, which can be analyzed and reviewed to determine if corrective action is required. Organizations that must retain audit data for long-term use should archive this information with the ability to retrieve relevant data when needed. The first five steps listed are to be performed by the auditor manually. Answer: B, D are incorrect. These tasks are best achieved by using an automated solution.
