You could take a look at the O'Reilly Oracle Security book and see if that has the information you need. Here is the table of contents:  

http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/orasec/toc.html
<http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/orasec/toc.html>
 

and here is a sample chapter, "Developing a Database Security Plan":

Hi

Does any have (or can you refer me to) documentation re account admin guidelines for an Oracle environment?
I am having no luck with Oracle support or Metalink. We have a fairly extended environment - 2 Financials databases and a datawarehouse (in development). I need some idea of "best of breed" - for example what format the username should be, must the password be set to expire after a certain time, do I use roles or not etc.

Any help would be much appreciated
