Hello Alan,

> Does anybody have any good books/white papers/websites to recommend?

You might want to read the Center for Internet Security's guide to hardening <value> where <value> can be anything from a server OS, a network device, a desktop OS or a server software. This URL points directly to the Oracle Database guides.

http://benchmarks.cisecurity.org/en-us/?route=downloads.browse.category.benchmarks.servers.database.oracle

But there is quite a lot more. Browse around and you can find other interesting papers.

You should also probably read the official documentation from Oracle on Security:

Have fun,
