Security Problem

We have an application that allows you to delete and update records in a table. The problem is that a same user can login using sqlplus and delete the entire records in a table. In order to prevent this, I came up with the following scheme: revoke table access privilege if a user is connecting via sqlplus or any other applications.

I can write a trigger that sends a message to a pro*c application that revokes table access privilege, but the problem is that v$session is a view not a table so I can't write a trigger based on v$session view. Does anybody have a suggestion how I can accomplish this whether it be through a trigger or some other means?
