Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Oracle is a Strong Performer across the board in our evaluation, and tops the native DBMS auditing solutions. Oracle is the technology leader when it comes to databases, and Oracle gives database security and auditing the same level of commitment and focus as other database features. Although Oracle's native auditing does not offer strong support for integration with applications, policy management, reporting, or centralized administration, it is nevertheless freely bundled with Oracle database management system (DBMS) making it an attractive option for enterprises. We find that with every new release of Oracle DBMS, Oracle continues to expand its auditing capabilities, specifically around performance, simplification, and auditing coverage, narrowing the gap with pure-play auditing vendors. Besides Oracle's native auditing, Oracle recently released the Audit Vault product, which offers more advanced auditing features including the ability to centralize auditing for large environments that deal with many databases.
