Help! I'm accused of breaching security!

At work we use a popular Oracle database application for college administration. The DBA granted select privileges so end-users could connect with Access to the tables in their module. Today I logged in to SQLPlus, which is loaded on every machine with the Access ODBC driver. I wanted to learn about SQL.

DBA has called my boss to say I've breached security. I say, can't be, since the DBA set up security of select only and only to my tables.

Can the DBA be right? If she is, doesn't that implicate that the security she set up is pretty bad?

Thanks,
Dwight
