What is the role of the SYSDBA privilege in Oracle Database?
Answer: It grants the highest administrative power, including starting and stopping the database
SYSDBA is the most powerful Oracle privilege, enabling operations such as STARTUP, SHUTDOWN, and RECOVER DATABASE that go beyond normal DBA capabilities.
Which view would a DBA query to see privileges that have been granted directly to a specific user?
Answer: DBA_SYS_PRIVS
DBA_SYS_PRIVS lists system privileges granted to users and roles, showing the grantee, privilege name, and whether it was granted WITH ADMIN OPTION.
What does granting a privilege WITH GRANT OPTION allow the recipient to do?
Answer: Grant the same object privilege to other users
WITH GRANT OPTION lets the grantee pass the same object privilege on to additional users, creating a chain of privilege delegation.
A user requires temporary elevated access to run a monthly report. Which Oracle feature best supports granting time-limited access without changing the user's default privileges?
Answer: Enabling a role within the session
A role can be enabled or disabled within a session using SET ROLE, allowing users to activate extra privileges only when needed.
Which Oracle tool or feature provides centralized management of database security policies across multiple databases?
Answer: Oracle Enterprise Manager (OEM)
Oracle Enterprise Manager provides a centralized console for monitoring, managing, and enforcing security policies across multiple Oracle database targets.
What is the effect of revoking a system privilege that was granted WITH ADMIN OPTION from a user?
Answer: Only the original grantee loses the privilege; downstream grants remain
Unlike object privilege revocation cascades, revoking a system privilege does not cascade — users who received it from the revoked grantee keep their privilege.
