Sybase ASE has many layers of security system. There are roles you can grant who has the privilege on the server. System Administrator (SA or sa_role), for example, has unlimited power on the server. There are other roles such as System Security Office (SSO) and Operator who has privileges to serve its own purpose. Users are assigned to the database as either public user or member of group who has privilege on the objects. Users can also be aliased as Database Owner (DBO). Data security has become a big topic. By the principle of least privilege, a user should only have access to the bare minimum of resources required to do whatever it is the user needs to do. Let us make recommendations and reduce full authorization and set up a reasonable access control for the secure usage of your system.
