How to Create Login, User, and Grant Permissions in SQL Server

When it comes to protecting sensitive data and keeping the database environment secure, the management of database permissions and privileges takes center stage. For example, you want a specific person to be able to modify and manipulate personal data, while others can only view this data. In this case, database administrators will need to create a new user or role with specific permissions that can be assigned at the server, database, or schema levels. To implement this task, they can use T-SQL statements provided by SQL Server or third-party tools.
