Vulnerability & Compliance Scanning 10 & 11G

wrap2tytMay 13 2013 — edited May 14 2013
My question is in regards to Oracle Advance Security or other encryption services that may prevent security scanning of the DBMS. Currently, when this OAS deployed this prevents us from conducting vulnerability\compliance scanning of the DB using Tenable Nessus, my question(s) is this, is there a way to allow the testing to take place with the OAS engaged and if not is it such an arduous effort to disable for 5 minutes and then re-enable? The reason I'm out here asking is because every DBA I've asked either cannot explain it or will not because they do not want to do it... either way if I can find an answer I can at least try to talk to them about it.

Any assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
