Oracle Auditing
The Oracle Auditing Problem
An Oracle audit can come out of nowhere, forcing you to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for updated licenses and programs you haven’t used in years or weren’t even aware had been downloaded. However, the complicated nature of self-auditing means that most companies would rather risk an Oracle audit than assess their compliance themselves. Considering that Oracle audits can run into hundreds of thousands, or even millions, of dollars owed in fees, this is a big risk.
Whether your company is out of compliance due to inadequate documentation, impromptu hardware refreshes, a lapse in project tracking, or simple human error, the last thing your company needs is the cost and inconvenience of a sudden Oracle audit. Obviously, compliance is a must, but does the path to compliance really have to be so invasive and expensive?
