A possible way. But not a good idea, if the security is the concern.

In the case of monica face. The simplest way is to add :

    LOCAL=<connect_string>

in the ORACLE.INI file in the Windows directory.

Or, you can make a customize login form and called in the form level ON-LOGON trigger. And then you can do more fancy things, like two-level Oracle logon securities or encryptions....
