Consider using Oracle's DBSAT - DB Security Assessment Tool. It is updated quite regularly and likely could identify the issue found in OCC.

https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/security/dbsat.html

That said, are you using Unified Auditing? If yes, is it linked properly?

I am playing with security compliance evaluations in Cloud Control 13c (13.2.0.0.0) running on Red Hat 7 Linux. Using the Basic Security Configuration, everything passes (I get a score of 100%), but there is an error and I would like to figure out why.

The error is on the rule Enable Database Auditing. It is "Compliance Rule evaluation failed." I checked the rule in the sysman.mgmt$compliance_standard_rule and it says "Required auditing parameters for database auditing should be set." I believe this is referring to audit_trail, which is set to DB.

Is this telling me that audit_trail is not set properly or that it can't figure out what it is set at? How do I fix this?

Thank you,
