Schema A will have only select on Schema B.  Version is 10gRelease 2.   
Management wants something better that just revoke privileges or revoke system 
privileges like SELECT ANY TABLE.  They have told us to investigate a way to 
separate the two schemas.

A few questions :

What privileges does schema A have?
What grants are in place on schema B's objects?
What Oracle version are you using?

Ordinarily objects owned by one schema (B) are not accessible to another schema 
(A) unless either schema B grant access either explicitly to A or to a role 
that is granted to A.  Or, schema A has a system privilege such as SELECT ANY 
TABLE.

How to restrict schema A from schema B.  
 
I have a db with schema B.  Our applications are written in C++ and they use 
schema B.  We have to support a 3rd party product that will require us to 
install schema A ( that supports the 3rd party app )  in our db.  How do I 
absolutely stop schema A from accessing schema B’s objects?  Management want 
options on how to restrict access.  
 
Besides from granting privileges and assigning roles how can I stop schema A 
from schema B’s objects?  We already use security policies and have discussed 
building a separate db for schema A.  
 
Has anybody else had this problem and how did they overcome it?
 
 
thanks.
