Integrated logins for Windows user groups

When a Windows user logs in, if they do not have an explicit integrated login mapping, but belong to a Windows user group for which there is an integrated login mapping, the user connects to the database as the database user or group specified in the Windows user group's integrated login mapping.

Caution

Creating an integrated login for a Windows user group allows any user that is a member of the group to connect to the database without knowing a user ID or password.

See Prevent Windows user groups members from connecting to a database.
