No, can't be sure but this is just the first line of defense which keeps out 99% of the people. We also lock down ODBC using Navigator and we use an exit point check (the Kisco product) to do a server side service level check to trap JDBC access as well. No individual user account is allow ODBC or JDBC connections and when we do allow it we create a special account that can only do ODBC/JDBC connections (no green-screen) and are restricted to one library that contains the files for that application
