A user account called “sa” is created for the Sybase System Administrator when you install the Sybase software. A user logged in as “sa” can use any database on Adaptive Server, including master, with full privileges.
Immediately after a new installation, there is no password on the “sa” account. The initial default value for the password is NULL. In a production environment, the Sybase System Administrator should always use a non-default password.
For greatest security, Sybase recommends setting the password to at have at least six characters, with a combination of letters and numbers.
