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.

This article examines how to create a new user account and grant/revoke permissions and roles on a database object, as well as how to check SQL Server user permissions on the database using T-SQL, SQL Server Management Studio, and dbForge Studio for SQL Server.
