🛡️ Oracle Java Audit Tip #2: Establish Ground Rules – NDA and Scope | Control the Process Before It Starts
Before handing over a single data point to Oracle during a Java audit, you need to set the ground rules. This video explains why securing a signed NDA and clearly defining audit scope is essential to protect your organization’s legal, operational, and strategic interests.
🎯 What You’ll Learn:
Why an NDA is non-negotiable — and how it protects your audit-related data
How to negotiate the scope and time period covered in the audit
What to ask if Oracle wants to run scripts or tools on your systems
How to push for a limited sample review and retain control over data collection
Why it’s smart to negotiate a timeline for responses and potentially delay the start if you need time to prepare
💡 Pro tip: Set expectations in writing early. A well-structured NDA and scope agreement signals to Oracle that you're cooperative but not naïve — and it helps you stay in control.
