With a setup like this, how do you stop a user from simply renaming the program they are using to match what you expect to see and, therefore, getting past your security ??

use v_$mystat - it has the sid - then do your join with v$session

Subject: methodology to keep only certain programs to connect to
I've been tasked to ensure only certain app programs access the database.
I'm thinking on-logon trigger, check the program field from v$session. unfortunately v$session is for all sessions, i can't seem to find the view that tells me only MY info during login. I only want the sid, serial#, username and program for my just now connection to the database.
Does this exist or am I going about this the wrong way?
We're thinking of checking those fields to make sure sql*plus, toad, etc can't connect as a particular user(even though the password is known out in the community).
any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
joe
