It is not safety for 100 percent.
create procedure hello
with encryption
as
print 'hello world'
--Now somebody opens QA and issue the following
alter procedure hello
as
print 'bye bye'

Databases and users are created trough a script that does:
-create the database
-create a user whith the procedure sp_addlogin
-DENY VIEW ANY DATABASE to this user
-DENY ALTER ANY LOGIN TO this user
-execute the procedure sp_changedbowner to this user and db created.
The backups/restores procedures are in "master" database; i try to alter
then with a normal user and I cant (this is ok!).
About the backups/restores procedures, do you think that are ok? I pretend
to do a weekly backup and a diary differential backup that will be stored in
the server during a week; after that i'll move it to a backup server and i
delete it.
Thanks for your help!

It looks OK as it suits to your business requirements. Have you looked at
WITH NOINIT option to keep more than one file for example for DIFF backups

i think "WITH NOINIT" is the default value, isnt it? If i dont specify this
option, will keep the diff backups?
All backups files, full and differential will be in separate files, and i
must be able to restore the database to any day, if i have backup of course
;-)

I'd keep a full/diff/log backup for each day. So in case of restore I easily
know what backup to be taken.
There is no need (in my opinion) to keep hundred of files within one single
file.

(i.e., a new file for each day), not a file that contains all the backups
So, will you keep the procedures as they are?
