Oracle Database Sensitive Data Assessment Report

The Discoverer component is used to generate the Oracle Database Sensitive Data Assessment Report in HTML, CSV, and JSON formats.

The HTML report is the main report and contains the discovered sensitive data and its categories along with target database information and Discoverer parameters.

The CSV report can be loaded into Oracle Audit Vault and Database Firewall to add sensitive data context to the new Data Privacy reports. For more information about this functionality, see Importing Sensitive Data Into AVDF Repository in the Oracle Audit Vault and Database Firewall Auditor's Guide. The JSON format can be used for integration with other tools.
