A certificate is a database-level securable contained by the database that is its parent in the permissions hierarchy. The most specific and limited permissions that can be denied on a certificate are listed below, together with the more general permissions that include them by implication.
| Certificate permission | Implied by certificate permission | Implied by database permission |
|---|---|---|
| CONTROL | CONTROL | CONTROL |
| TAKE OWNERSHIP | CONTROL | CONTROL |
| ALTER | CONTROL | ALTER ANY CERTIFICATE |
| REFERENCES | CONTROL | REFERENCES |
| VIEW DEFINITION | CONTROL | VIEW DEFINITION |
Requires CONTROL permission on the certificate. If the AS clause is used, the specified principal must own the certificate.
