Is this acceptable for audit purpose in many cases? Without the values, I'm afraid that it's hard to analyze what table records are affected by the statements from the audit logs. I was thinking that identifying the data affected is one of important thing for the audit. If I'm malicious DBA, I will always use the extended protocol to prevent the values from being audited when I execute the statement.
