Microsoft Dataverse uses a role-based security model to control access to a database and its resources in an environment. Use security roles to configure access to all resources in an environment or to specific apps and data in the environment. A combination of access levels and permissions in a security role determines which apps and data users can view and how they can interact with those apps and data.

An environment can have no or one Dataverse database. You assign security roles differently for [environments that have no Dataverse database](database-security-configure.md#assign-security-roles-to-users-in-an-environment-that-has-no-dataverse-database) and [environments that have a Dataverse database](database-security-configure.md#assign-security-roles-to-users-in-an-environment-that-has-a-dataverse-database).

## Predefined security roles
3028

Environments include predefined security roles that reflect common user tasks. The predefined security roles follow the security best practice of "minimum required access": provide the least access to the minimum business data that a user needs to use an app. These security roles can be assigned to a user, [owner team](manage-teams.md#types-of-teams), and [group team](manage-group-teams.md). The predefined security roles that are available in an environment depend on the environment type and the apps installed in it.
