TechNet Webcast: Configuring with Least Privilege in SQL Server 2008
I recently presented a TechNet Webcast on the topic “Configuring with Least Privilege in SQL Server 2008”.
The topics covered in the Webcast are:-
1. Configuring SQL Server service accounts with least privilege. Service isolation is also explained.
2. Configuring accounts connecting to SQL Server from a Web application (Principals) with least privilege.
3. Running xp_cmdshell with a proxy so that the account invoking xp_cmdshell need not be a sysadmin.
4. Running SQL Server jobs with least privilege.
