MYS8-00-004600 - The MySQL Database Server 8.0 must generate audit records for all direct access to the database(s).

Information

In this context, direct access is any query, command, or call to the Database Management System (DBMS) that comes from any source other than the application(s) that it supports. Examples would be the command line or a database management utility program. The intent is to capture all activity from administrative and non-standard sources.

Solution

If currently required, configure the MySQL Database Server to produce audit records for all direct access to the database(s).

See the supplemental file 'MySQL80Audit.sql'.
