default public permissions

Can anyone tell me what are (or where to find) the default permissions
granted to the public role? I think that permissions are granted not only in
the user database in question, but also in the system databases? Please let
me know. Thanks.
Yes, the public role is granted specific permissions in every db by default.
You can change these by expanding the DB in Enterprise Manager, Databases,
Expand the database in question, expand Roles. Double click Public. Click
the Permissions button.
You should see exec perms on a bunch of system stored procs, system tables
in the user db, etc.
Notice that by default the public role doesn't get permissions on every
object in the db.
You can change the public role's permissions here, but be sure to compensate
by giving those permissions to the users that will need it through another
role.
Every user in the db is in the public role, so the changes you make will
affect everyone. So, don't deny permissions, just remove them.
