Use a logon trigger to capture everything from v$session and you can look at program name etc...it will be pretty easy to figure out who and when. Something like this in the trigger...

select distinct sid into l_sid from v$mystat; insert into session_log (select * from v$session where sid = l_sid;

Folks,

Before I go off re-inventing the wheel once again I'll ask the group is anyone has tried this before. What I have is a request from damanagement to tell them when someone connects to our PeopleSoft database using the schema username, but outside of PeopleTools. The reason is that there have been some
"unexplained" changes to data that have occurred over the last month that is causing a pile of concern. It is believed that someone who has the schema password is using SQL*Plus or Toad to update the data when they should not be
doing so. Now auditing connects for the schema account is not a problem, but
determining which are suspicious and which are due to the damned PeopleSoft panel processor I can't see a way around easily from sys.aud$. Anyone else been
there, done that??
