TechEd '04: DAT330 SQL Server 2005 (code named "Yukon"): Security Enhancements

  • Endpoints based on transport and protocol
  • The security model changes a bit. SQL Brower Service is separated out and can be stopped without stopping SQL Engine
  • Discussion of how the login process works
  • Standard SQL Logings
    • Enforcement based on strenght, expirations and lockouts
    • Follows local NT password policy on Windows 2003 Server only
    • Talked about using SSL encryption
  • User and Schema Separation
    • Principal is essentially the users context, schema is the collection of objects
    • So instead of an user own objects, schemas own objects which can be owed by a user.
    • Not all users need to own a schema. This separation allows for lower-privledge
    • sp_CreateLogin becomes Create Login
    • BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH! Oh no!
    • Yukon will allow an "impersonation" context for certain activities

Due to the on-going problems with the presentation and depth of the materials, I'm going to stop gathering notes here and point you at this instead.
