In Our organization , two employees who copy whole windows server system to image file.
And our server has business and people's related information stored in oracle database.
Both does not know the password but they know sys user. and they are a website developer and another is junior server admin who stole our necessary information.
Now the main Question is how to stop access from an unauthorized operating system or say if image file of operating system is installed on a new host or VM Ware server or machine so oracle database is not open.
How it's possible?

If they have an image of the server, then they've got the data!
Even if you could somehow stop them opening the database they can view the datafiles.
Unless you're using Transparent Database Encryption, they can see text in them with a hex editor.
https://oracle-base.com/articles/10g/transparent-data-encryption-10gr2 I'm not aware of a way to prevent people loading images on a new host.
