Interesting question. Your HR department has got fears ? :-)
Oracle DBAs needs really extensive rights to do their tasks, so
covering some table from Oracle DBAs is very difficult. Even if you
manage it for example by audit, with these rights is no problem to
cover tracks. I think that you can't achieve your goal by internal
Oracle tools. I do not know your application, but maybe you can store
encrypted informations and decrypt them in front end.
