Hi List, "A secure system makes data available to authorized users, without delay. Denial-of-service attacks are attempts to block authorized usersâ ability to access and use the system when needed."
By using user-profile one can lock DB users if he/she provides wrong password 3 times. Then DBA has to unlock the users to make it work. By knowing DB userid somebody can lock the DB users (by providing wrong password 3 times) so that when the actual user try to loing it will block him/her to access the db. How does oracle address this "Denial Of Service" ? Any response would be highly appreciated.
