SQL Language DCL Data Control Language

In this video you will learn about SQL Language DCL(Data Control Language)

DCL (Data Control Language) is a subset of SQL that deals with database security and access control.

The three primary commands in SQL DCL are:

GRANT: This command is used to give permission to a specific user or role to perform specific actions on a database object (such as a table or view). The syntax of the GRANT command is:

GRANT permission_name ON object_name TO user/role

For example, the following command grants SELECT permission on the "employees" table to the user "john":

GRANT SELECT ON employees TO john;

REVOKE: This command is used to remove previously granted permissions from a user or role. The syntax of the REVOKE command is:

REVOKE permission_name ON object_name TO user/role

For example, the following command revokes the SELECT permission on the "employees" table from the user "john":

REVOKE SELECT ON employees FROM john;

DENY: This command is used to explicitly deny a user or role the permission to perform specific actions on a database object. The syntax of the DENY command is:

DENY permission_name ON object_name TO user/role

For example, the following command denies the SELECT permission on the "employees" table to the user "john":

DENY SELECT ON employees TO john;

By using these DCL commands, database administrators can control who has access to specific data in the database and what actions they can perform on that data. This helps to ensure data security and maintain the integrity of the database.
