Oracle Server Security Management

Oracle manages database access permissions using users and roles. Users own schema objects (for example, tables, views) and can assign privileges on those objects to other users to control who has access to which objects.

Navicat provides Manage Users to add, delete, edit users/roles, and grant/revoke privileges on the selected tables, views, functions/procedures.

In addition to the user accounts that you create, the database includes a number of user accounts that are automatically created upon installation. Administrative accounts: SYS, SYSTEM, SYSMAN, and DBSNMP. Administrative accounts are highly privileged accounts to perform administrative tasks such as starting and stopping the database, managing database memory and storage, creating and managing database users, and so on. Your database may also include sample schemas (SCOTT, HR, OE, OC, PM, IX and SH), which are a set of interlinked schemas that enable Oracle documentation and Oracle instructional materials to illustrate common database tasks.

Simply click to open the Manage Users window and use the toolbar below, allowing you to add, edit and delete users/roles.
