Oracle Audit Vault and Database Firewall Documentation
Release 12.2

Welcome

Oracle Audit Vault and Database Firewall secures databases and other critical components of IT infrastructure (such as operating systems) in two ways: For databases and supported operating systems, it collects audit data, and makes it available in audit reports. For Oracle databases, Oracle Audit Vault and Database Firewall lets an auditor set audit policies and provision them from the Audit Vault Server console. For databases, it provides a database firewall that can monitor and/or block SQL statements on the network based on a firewall policy designed by an auditor.

Upgrade to Oracle AVDF 20 at the earliest as premier support for release 12.2 ended in March 2021 as specified in the Oracle Lifetime Support Policy Guide. Refer to Oracle AVDF 20 Upgrade Documentation for complete information.
