What wrong with a trigger? Also, you could just journal the file and extract
the data you need. Where they smart enough to put the value in a separate
table with just the key and the encrypted data?

The company I'm working for has asked me whether it's possible to track all
accesses to a file which contains an (encrypted) credit card number.

From my research I've discovered that there is a READ trigger on the
iSeries DB2 but it is highly recommended that it not be used, which I can
understand.


I've also come across a reference to a DB2 audit function, but
unfortunately, only for the LUW version of DB2 (
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v8/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.db2.udb.doc/admin/t0011540.htm
)
. I went searching for the function in iSeries DB2 and couldn't find it.
Can anyone tell me if it exists, where any good documentation for it is, or
if not, any alternatives to tracking access to important data. Perhaps there
are better techniques using normal iSeries authority?
