Continuous read-and-purge integration with Oracle's Unified Audit Trail — fetching audit data quickly and keeping the source clean, so compliance never becomes a storage problem on your Oracle systems.
Scalefield Secure leverages Oracle's Unified Audit Trail — the standard, built-in mechanism for capturing audit data in modern Oracle databases. The Scalefield collector runs in a continuous loop: it reads new audit records from the Unified Audit Trail, transfers them into the Scalefield compliance pipeline, and then purges the consumed records from Oracle.
This read-and-purge cycle delivers two key advantages: audit data is fetched quickly and consistently so nothing is missed, and the Unified Audit Trail never accumulates unbounded data on the source database. Without active purging, Oracle's audit trail tables can grow to consume significant storage and degrade performance — Scalefield eliminates that operational burden entirely. All fetched audit data is compressed into Parquet format and archived in the same pipeline as your PostgreSQL, SQL Server, and other database audit streams.
The collector polls the Unified Audit Trail in a tight loop, ensuring new audit records are captured within seconds of being written. No batch delays, no missed windows — continuous compliance coverage.
After each fetch cycle, consumed records are purged from Oracle's audit trail tables. This prevents unbounded growth on the source database — eliminating storage pressure and the performance degradation that comes with oversized audit tables.
Captures all Unified Audit Trail events: SQL statements, privilege usage, authentication events, schema modifications, and Oracle-specific security events — with full user and session context.
Oracle-specific security events including privilege escalations and policy changes.
Enable Oracle Unified Audit Trail, configure Scalefield collector with database connection credentials, deploy collector pod. Automated purging policies prevent audit trail table growth.
