The Oracle OS_AUTHENT_PREFIX parameter should be changed from the default value of OPS$.
Description
Discussion Text
The OS_AUTHENT_PREFIX parameter defines the prefix for database account names to be identified EXTERNALLY by the operating system. When set to the special value of OPS$, accounts defined with the prefix of OPS$ may authenticate either with a password or with OS authentication. Use of more than one authentication method to access a single account results in a loss of accountability, that is, it is similar to a shared account. Setting this parameter to a value other than OPS$ prevents a shared usage of a single account.
