Script to auto generate a security report for your SQL Server instance

Problem

A few of my clients have been asking me if I have a template for a security report they can send to their security auditors. I always prepare this report manually for them, using system procedures such as sp_helplogin, sp_helpuser, etc, and then format the data in a Word document  (a template I have created for that matter). This is a bit of a tedious process that takes me a few hours to complete if the environment is complex (security wise).

For that reason, I wanted to create a Stored Procedure that will not only fetch the data, but also provide a formatted report so that my clients will be able to run the report themselves and send it directly to the auditors.

Solution

In this tip I provide a Stored Procedure that was tested in SQL Server 2005 and generates all required security information.

The output generates html, so the text output of the Stored Procedure can be saved as an .html file and opened directly with an Internet Browser. No additional processing (such as creating or formatting a document) is required.

The Stored Procedure:

-- Srored Procedure to generate Security Audit report in HTML format:

CREATE PROC spAuditUsersPermissions
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON

DECLARE @sql VARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @strHTML VARCHAR(MAX)
DECLARE @i INT
DECLARE @rc INT
DECLARE @dbname VARCHAR(400)

Save the result from the query above in an .html file and open it with an Internet Browser.

The report from the Browser will look something like this, but should have information for all of your databases.

After you create the stored procedure you need to execute the following command which will run the stored procedure:

spAuditUsersPermissions

Friday, November 18, 2016 - 4:16:17 AM - Elliott Back To Top (43798)

 Hi,

 

when I run the command the only message I get is "command(s) completed successfully.

 

there is no other text to copy and paste?

 

thanks,

Elliott

Hi Elliott,

You can  copy the text that the SP returns from the grid (without the header), save it into an html file (I. E.: open notepad, paste text and save as .html not as .txt). Open html file from an Internet browser.

Let me know how it went!

 

Michelle.

Hi Elliott,

the output should show on the Messages tab when you run the query.

Hi Michelle ,

  this is very nice script. and it works great for me on SQL 2012. Do you have any script to generate report only for failed logins?

Wednesday, February 19, 2014 - 9:17:44 AM - Greg Robidoux Back To Top (29502)

Hi Lee,

I just ran this for SQL Server 2012 and this worked great.  This should be fine from all version from SQL 2005 - SQL 2012.

Greg

Wednesday, February 19, 2014 - 8:10:22 AM - Lee Back To Top (29500)

Question: Does this also work with SQL Server 2008 or do I need to make changes?

Friday, December 21, 2012 - 10:26:42 AM - Jack Burgess Back To Top (21081)

Great script!  The only thing missing from our perspective would be the server-wide permissions that get set at the instance level (like "view server state" and "alter trace").  If anybody has already done that modification, let me know!

To prevent code from stopping on 'Offline' databases:

Replace:
DECLARE dbs CURSOR FOR SELECT name FROM master..sysdatabases ORDER BY name

With:
DECLARE dbs CURSOR FOR SELECT name FROM master..sysdatabases
     where DATABASEPROPERTYEX(name, 'Status') = 'online'
     ORDER BY name

This is kind of off subject but somewhat related. For an audit, in addition to the information generated in this report, are requesting other items such as the ones listed below. Is there a stored procedure or view that shows this information:

  • Patches
  • List of sample databases (to determine if they are still installed)
  • List of default accounts (could this be done using the syslogins?)
  • Enumerate data connectors
  • Query/retrieval mechanisms

Also, instead of using syslogins, how can I edit it to use sys.server_principals  and sys.sql_logins?

Before I look into modifying for SQL 2000 did anyone already do this and the thread broke?  I love the 2006 Michelle.  Well done!

Hi,

Great, I see that there is a demand for the SQL 2000 script version, so I will work on it and will post it later.

 

Michelle.

Hi

thanks for your script it works great.

Is there a way to convert easily this script for make it works for MS SQL Server 2000.

Thanks in advance for your answer. 

 

Tuesday, October 20, 2009 - 4:42:21 PM - cyberchic26 Back To Top (4265)

This worked.  THANKS!! This also solved another issue I had as well.

 

 

Monday, October 19, 2009 - 11:54:49 AM - MichDBA Back To Top (4249)

I don't know of a way to supress these [SQLSTATE 01000]  messages except for adding code to remove them from the output file.

Try executing an Operating System command from the job step, instead:

          osql -S<your_server_name> -E -Q" exec <your_database>..SP_SecurityAuditReports" -o<output file>

 

(replace   <your server name> ,    <your_database>  and  <output file>    accordingly).

 

I hope this one works... Let me know.


Monday, October 19, 2009 - 11:28:55 AM - cyberchic26 Back To Top (4248)

I have the same issue...I was hoping someone had replied.

Is there a way to suppress the MANY [SQLSTATE 01000] that now plagues the report if it is run as a job step? job step command = exec SP_SecurityAuditReport

Monday, August 24, 2009 - 7:23:11 AM - admin Back To Top (3948)

The script has been updated to reflect some of these changes.

Sunday, August 23, 2009 - 2:02:15 PM - MichDBA Back To Top (3943)

Hi mhickma,

Great question!   Yes, you can email this report easily.

You can do one of the following:

  • Run it from an SSIS package that sends the output to an *.htm file and then send the output file by email (add a send email task)
  • Run it from a job , using an output file (in the step's advance options) and add a step to that job that sends the output file by email using database mail.
    You can find some examples here:  http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190307.aspx.
  • Run a batch file to create the output file, something like:
osql -S"<server_name>" -E -Q"EXEC Michelle..spAuditUsersPermissions" -o"c:\temp\try.htm"
And then send it (the output file -- c:\temp\try.htm) using database mail as described above.
 

Hope this helps....

Michelle.

 Hi Lazlo,

Thanks for the comments, we will modify the script accordingly.

Regarding #2, I do not get the same behavior as you (I tried it on few servers). Is it possible that you have a SET ROWCOUNT 1 somewhere?

Regarding  #3, I've seen cass where    OBJECTPROPERTY(obj.object_id,''IsMSShipped'')  returned the wrong value (maybe prior to SQL2005 SP2 or SP3?). Instead, you can use WHERE type <> 'S', but it will still return few of the system tables such as dbproperties, so you can add a conditionto omit them.

 

Thanks,

Michelle.

Cool script! Now is there a way to use this script to send database mail with the results as the body? I could see using this in a job and sending a report on a monthly basis, especially the granulated view; commenting out the where clause.

Tuesday, August 18, 2009 - 8:59:30 AM - stittdba Back To Top (3906)

I work with SQL Servers that use collation Latin1_General_CS_AS. In order for this code to work you need to make the following changes,

On line 103, change "Dbs" to "dbs"
On line 113, change "@dbName" to "@dbname"
On line 229, change "RowNumber" to "Rownumber"
On line 295, change "RowNumber" to "Rownumber"
On line 305, change "Dbs" to "dbs"

 If you work in case-insensitive environments, the code will work just fine.

Tuesday, August 18, 2009 - 6:17:52 AM - Lazlo Back To Top (3901)

Great script, thank you.

Some comments:

1. The title must be corrected in line 216 (to "Database level permissions")

2. only the first row is printed in Login mapping and Roles per user tables.

3. I had to comment out the where condition in line 263 to get all of the object permissions (I don't really understand why...)
