Management want to see who does or tries to do anything malicious. They want to see users' shell activity.

[KSB] I still don't understand what you are trying to accomplish.  An
approach based on script can be used to keep tabs on honest and / or
unsophisticated users.  If you are protecting against or detecting
sophisticated users who may be trying to do something they don't want
you to know about, this approach is far short of what is needed.

What problem are you trying to solve?
