About Data Retention

Data that Oracle CASB Cloud Service collects is available in the UI for 90 days. After that it is purged.

Raw Data and Derived Data

Oracle CASB Cloud Service ingests raw data on application instances that it monitors. This raw data includes security configurations, user groups and roles, and user activity metadata, such as logins, logouts, sharing of content, and creating and terminating compute instances.

From this raw data, Oracle CASB Cloud Service derives the security intelligence data that it displays in the UI, such as policy alerts, threat alerts, user risk scores, security configuration drifts, and activity reports.

Data Retention

For monitored services:

  • Activity data, plus all data derived from the raw activity data, is retained in the UI for 90 days. After 90 days, that data is removed from the UI.

    While data is available in the UI, you can export it for permanent storage in your systems. See Exporting Data.

  • Configuration data is never stored in the UI.

  • Discovery data is only available in the UI in summary form. Raw activity data that was not used in the derived data is deleted from Oracle CASB Cloud Service as soon as the raw data is analyzed and processed.

  • Services that have been in failed operational status for more than 120 days will be purged as well to remove any stored credentials related to the inactive service. Inactive instances that have no stored credentials or data are removed when the credentials are purged.
