DBMS: Object Permissions (Definitions)

"These are permissions that enable a user to work with data in an object. For example, SELECT is the object permission that enables a user to read data from a table object." (Owen Williams, "MCSE TestPrep: SQL Server 6.5 Design and Implementation", 1998)

"Permission based on a table or view; controls the ability to execute the SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements against the table or view." (Microsoft Corporation, "SQL Server 7.0 System Administration Training Kit", 1999)

"An attribute that controls the ability to perform operations on an object. For example, table or view permissions control which users can execute SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE statements against the table or view." (Anthony Sequeira & Brian Alderman, "The SQL Server 2000 Book", 2003)

"A permission on a database object that controls how the object can be accessed." (Marilyn Miller-White et al, "MCITP Administrator: Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2005 Optimization and Maintenance 70-444", 2007)

"Permissions that regulate the use of certain commands (data modification commands, plus select, truncate table and execute) to specific tables, views or columns." (Karen Paulsell et al, "Sybase SQL Server: Performance and Tuning Guide", 1996)

"Object permissions regulate a user’s ability to work with the data contained in the database." (Joseph L Jorden & Dandy Weyn, "MCTS Microsoft SQL Server 2005: Implementation and Maintenance Study Guide - Exam 70-431", 2006)
