what you can do is:

  1. create a user A with minimal privileges (connect)
  2. if user A connects to SQL*PLUS he cannot do anything (no privileges)
  3. in your app., when user A logs on, programmatically reconnect as another user B with more appropriate privileges. Make it so that it is impossible to know B from A
