About Configuring Targets
Learn about configuring targets.
Targets can be supported databases or operating systems that Database Security Central monitors. You must register all of the targets in the Audit Vault Server, regardless of whether you are deploying the Audit Vault Agent, the Database Firewall, or both.
If you want to collect audit trails from your targets, you must configure an audit trail for each target and start collection manually.
If you want to monitor a target with the Database Firewall, you must create a monitoring point for that target.
For Oracle Database targets that you monitor with the Database Firewall, you can configure Oracle Database Security Central to monitor the native network encrypted traffic. To do so, you must run scripts on the target computers to configure the necessary privileges.
If you are using the Database Firewall, you can also monitor the target database’s responses to incoming SQL traffic. The following sections contain the high-level workflow for configuring the Oracle Database Security Central system.
