> psql edb -c 'ALTER SYSTEM SET edb_audit_connect = 'all''
> psql edb -c 'ALTER SYSTEM SET edb_audit_disconnect = 'all''
>psql edb -c 'SELECT pg_reload_conf()'

or

Update the system documentation to note the organizationally approved setting and corresponding justification of the setting for this requirement.
