auditing

I am developing a RESTful API using Spring Data REST. Now for auditing, Spring does have the option to auditing meta data like created_date and modified_date but they don't provide entity versioning. Currently there are two popular libraries for entity version which are Envers and Javers. I have looked over for a comparison of both but there arent any articles on this matter. So what are the benefits and drawbacks of using Javers over Envers? There are two big difference between JaVers and Envers: Envers is the Hibernate plugin. It has good integration with Hibernate but you can use it only

If a branch has been deleted in git is it still possible to identify whether specific commits were made on that deleted branch? From what I have found so far - git branches are merely pointers so deleting them would lose the that specific part of the audit history. Hoping that I can be proven wrong on this. thanks, git branches are merely pointers Yes and which is exactly why deleting them would delete just the pointer. If you have merged the branch to your mainline, you no longer need that pointer; but you will always know what all commits were made to that branch individually, unless you

My task is to make an ETW real-time consumer with events provided by 'Microsoft Windows Security Auditing'. I made a simple controller and consumer application, basing on this example http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee441325%28v=vs.85%29.aspx and changing flags to work in real-time mode. The main function looks this way: LPTSTR SessionName = L"hahahaaa"; ULONG status = ERROR_SUCCESS; PEVENT_TRACE_PROPERTIES pSessionProperties = NULL; EVENT_TRACE_LOGFILE trace; TRACEHANDLE hTrace = 0; TRACEHANDLE hSession = 0; const GUID providerId = { 0x54849625, 0x5478, 0x4994, { 0xA5,

I'm starting to dive into TFS 2012 and I have a basic understanding of the tiers and how build servers, controllers and agents work and how different build scripts can have different configurations and projects. However, one of the things I'm struggling with is a requirement for our source control solution that says that I need to be able to prove a particular changeset or shelfset produced a particular build. That is, given a particular binary, I can point to a release changeset that generated that binary. I should also be able to point to the test changeset that was merged into the release

I'm using the IPostUpdateEventListener interface to do update audit logging now, grabbing the old and new values, then storing each updated field in an "Audit" table and all that jive. Works swell, but there's two last requirements I'm having a hard time fullfilling: Display which employee the update was for. Display the "friendly" name of the field updated. For #1, my first instinct was to use reflection and look for & grab the "Employee" property on the given entity to find out which Employee it was for, but that quickly falls apart when you're a few objects deep in the graph with no

I've found a strange behaviour in Nmap (I am using version 5.51 if that matters but I have the same issue with version 5.00), on some networks this plugin does not retrieve MAC address and, consequently, Vendor. The strange thing is that it retrieves almost everything like operating system and so on but it does not print the MAC address. How is that possible? This is the command I use usually: nmap -A -O 192.168.1.0/24 -oX mynetwork.xml Nmap can only retrieve the MAC address if you are scanning hosts on the local subnet, directly reachable via layer 2 (ethernet or wifi). When you scan hosts

I need to implement a revision system for articles in my grails web app. After searching grails forum, stackoverflow, grails plugins and googling internet, I have ended up with 3 options: Option 1 - Using the grails Envers plugin (see http://code.google.com/p/grails-envers-plugin/ ). Has anyone used it successfully? Or using Envers without the plugin (see here ) but how can I make it work with GORM? Option 2 - Using the Gvers plugin I have found out here: https://github.com/ziftytodd/gvers . I never heard anyone using it, so is there anybody who have ever used it successfully? Option 3 - Built
