In that case, you'll be totally familiar with the concepts of O/S authentication for Privileged Users and Password File authentication for Privileged Users, won't you?
And, given that familiarity, you'll know that O/S authentication doesn't require a password, so you must be using password file authentication.
And then, having read the documentation, you'll know that SYS's Password File default password is 'oracle'.
And then, having known all of that, you'll slap youself in the head for having asked such a question in the first place. Naturally.
