Modify a Chart To change the date range of a chart, change from chart to table view or vice-versa, or select a different chart type, click the Configure (wrench) icon in the upper-right corner of the chart. NOTE: If you set the date range so as to return an enormous amount of data, for example by selecting All Dates Through Today, after you save the configuration it may take several minutes for the chart to be updated. If the results are too dense to be readable, try switching to table view.

Large Selects by Non-Privileged Users: Every organization will have a different definition of “large” and some databases will have a wider variation in their activity. However, once you have monitored SELECT activity for several weeks it should be relatively clear as to a threshold that represents an unusually large dataset return. This represents a likely download of the data to a local database or even Excel spreadsheet. Once the data is stored locally, you've likely lost the ability to pla

In the case of sensitive data, communicate with the user to ensure they have a legitimate need for the data and understand the protection requirements for that data.

DASHBOARD CHARTS > CHART DESCRIPTIONS Login Source Information: This table provides you with metrics to spot likely use of a shared account. User IDs with a significant number of logins in one day or coming from multiple network users, multiple source IP addresses or multiple source applications are highly suspicious and should be investigated. It is also highly unlikely that a single user would log in from multiple domains during a single 24-hour period. Some of this may vary from organizati

DASHBOARD CHARTS > CHART DESCRIPTIONS Database account activity should be monitored including provisioning and deprovisioning users. When OS accounts are deprovisioned, the matching database accounts should be removed as well. If your organization is not growing, but you see many more roles and users created than dropped, you should review your de-provisioning process.

These reports may include more detailed data, and allow you to “drill down” from summary to detailed data, in some cases all the way down to the individual query level. You may “publish” a report to share it with all other users, annotate reports with comments that are visible to other users, and save reports in HTML, PDF, comma-delimited text, or ri
