Answer choices

Why each option matters

Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.

Correct answer & explanation

Only successful and failed database authentication attempts

The configuration only includes SUCCESSFUL_DATABASE_AUTHENTICATION_GROUP and FAILED_DATABASE_AUTHENTICATION_GROUP. Option A is wrong because it includes actions not in the config. Option B is wrong because it includes data modification actions. Option D is wrong because it includes all actions.
