DBA_AUDIT_STATEMENT

DBA_AUDIT_STATEMENT displays audit trail records for all GRANT, REVOKE, AUDIT, NOAUDIT, and ALTER SYSTEM statements in the database.

Note: This view is deprecated and applies only to traditional auditing. Traditional auditing is desupported starting in Oracle AI Database 26ai. Though traditional auditing is desupported, any current traditional audit settings that you have will still be honored and are viewable with this view. See Oracle AI Database Security Guide for more information about how this desupport works.
