Connect DB - SYS user with wrong password

009May 7 2010 — edited May 7 2010
Hi All,

A strange thing I have noticed with SYS user since Oracle 9i(never worked on earlier versions) is that I can connect to the SYS user as SYSDBA with wrong password as well! Please guide how to prevent this...
(I have searched for a solution online but was unable to find any :( )
SQL> CONN SYS/AAA@TEST AS SYSDBA
Connected.
SQL> DISC

With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options
SQL> CONN SYS/BBB@TEST AS SYSDBA
Connected.
