Public Role

In BOL (regarding the Public Role) it states, as one of its functions:
"Captures all default permissions for users in a database."
How does one assign default permissions for a user?

public role. So, you grant permissions to the user by granting permissions t

the public role. But ...
From BOL "A user receives the union of all the permissions granted, denied,
or revoked on an object, with any denied permissions taking precedence over
the same permissions granted or revoked at another level".

like to add that you might consider using user-defined roles instead of
public so that you can more granularly control security. Personally, I only
use the public role for default system catalog permissions.
Hope this helps.
