Exporting audit policy configuration as an XML file
As an audit administrator, you can export an audit policy configuration as an XML file. Audit Policy Maintenance seals the XML file for security reasons, which prevents anyone from editing the file and then tricking someone into reloading it into the database as corrupted.
The only valid way of making an audit policy configuration change is through Audit Policy Maintenance. If a user is going to load the XML file (through either Audit Policy Maintenance or Data Administration), the tool checks the seal information before loading an XML file. If the seal information is invalid or missing, the tool does not load the XML file.
