User access to the database

Every user must connect to the database using an authorized userid and password. Questions you’ll have to address include the following:

  • Will users share one or more common userids (this is common with many vendor applications) or will each user have a unique userid?

  • Should passwords expire after a period of time?

  • Do you need to implement a minimum length for passwords or impose other content restrictions?

  • Do you want to limit the number of concurrent sessions for a given user?

  • Will users be able to create their own objects?

  • Will you be able to restrict access to DBA or other privileged accounts?

  • Will the database be accessible for remote connections using SQL*Net or Net8?

  • Will the database be accessible for distributed queries?
