Data control (DCL)

Data control commands in SQL control access privileges and security issues of a database system or parts of it. These commands are closely related to the DBMS (Database Management System) and can therefore vary in different SQL implementations.
Some typical commands are:

  • GRANT - give user access privileges to a database
  • DENY - deny user access
  • REVOKE withdraws access privileges given with the GRANT or taken with the DENY command

Since these commands depend on the actual database management system (DBMS), we will not cover DCL in this module.
