The PostgreSQL Audit extension (pgaudit) provides detailed session and/or object audit logging via
the standard PostgreSQL logging facility.
The goal of the PostgreSQL Audit extension (pgaudit) is to provide PostgreSQL users with capability
to produce audit logs often required to comply with government, financial, or ISO certifications.
An audit is an official inspection of an individual's or organization's accounts, typically by an
independent body. The information gathered by the PostgreSQL Audit extension (pgaudit) is properly
called an audit trail or audit log. The term audit log is used in this documentation.
