Effortless Data Compliance for Oracle Database

In today's regulatory landscape, ensuring data compliance for Oracle Database has become a strategic business imperative. According to the Ponemon Institute's 2024 Cost of Compliance Report, organizations implementing automated compliance frameworks significantly reduce regulatory preparation time and compliance-related costs.

Oracle Database powers mission-critical applications across industries from financial services to healthcare. While Oracle provides native security features and auditing capabilities, organizations operating under stringent regulatory frameworks like GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, and SOX often require more sophisticated compliance automation.

This guide explores Oracle Database's native compliance capabilities and demonstrates how DataSunrise's Zero-Touch Compliance Automation transforms regulatory adherence into an effortless, continuous process.

Native Oracle Database Compliance Capabilities

Oracle Database includes several built-in features designed to support compliance regulations and security requirements. These native capabilities provide the foundation for tracking database activities and protecting sensitive data through audit trails.

1. Oracle Unified Auditing

Oracle's Unified Auditing consolidates audit trail information into a single repository:

-- Enable unified auditing for specific operations
CREATE AUDIT POLICY compliance_policy
ACTIONS SELECT ON hr.employees,
        UPDATE ON hr.employees,
        DELETE ON hr.employees;

AUDIT POLICY compliance_policy;

2. Oracle Data Redaction

Oracle's Data Redaction protects sensitive information in real-time through data masking capabilities:

-- Configure redaction for sensitive columns
BEGIN
  DBMS_REDACT.ADD_POLICY(
    object_schema   => 'HR',
    object_name     => 'EMPLOYEES',
    column_name     => 'SALARY',
    policy_name     => 'REDACT_SALARY',
    function_type   => DBMS_REDACT.FULL,
    expression      => 'SYS_CONTEXT(''USERENV'',''SESSION_USER'') != ''PAYROLL_ADMIN'''
  );
END;
