+## How to Manage User Privileges?
+
+Most databases have multiple users accessing and modifying
+data within the database. This might pose a serious security concern for the
+system administrators that wish to grant only certain privileges to certain
+users. A typical example would be an internal database of some company which
+tracks data about their employees. Naturally, only certain users of the database
+should be able to perform queries which modify that data.
+
+At Memgraph, we provide the administrators with the option of granting,
+denying or revoking a certain set of privileges to some users or groups of users
+(i.e. users that are assigned a specific user role), thereby eliminating such
+security concerns.
+
+By default, anyone can connect to Memgraph and is granted all privileges.
+After the first user is created, Memgraph will execute a query if and only
+if either a user or its role is granted that privilege and neither the
+user nor its role are denied that privilege. Otherwise, Memgraph will not
+execute that specific query. Note that `DENY` is a stronger
+operation than `GRANT`. This is also notable from the fact that if neither the
+user nor its role are explicitly granted or denied a certain privilege, that
+user will not be able to perform that specific query. This effect also is known
+as a silent deny. The information above is neatly condensed in the following
+table:
+
+User Status | Role Status | Effective Status
+---------------------------------------------
+GRANT       | GRANT       | GRANT
+GRANT       | DENY        | DENY
+GRANT       | NULL        | GRANT
+DENY        | GRANT       | DENY
+DENY        | DENY        | DENY
+DENY        | NULL        | DENY
+NULL        | GRANT       | GRANT
+NULL        | DENY        | DENY
+NULL        | NULL        | DENY
+
+All supported commands that deal with accessing or modifying users, user
+roles and privileges can only be executed by users that are granted the
+`AUTH` privilege. All of those commands are listed in the appropriate
+[reference guide](../reference_guide/security.md).
+
+At the moment, privileges are confined to users' abilities to perform certain
+`OpenCypher` queries. Namely users can be given permission to execute a subset
+of the following commands: `CREATE`, `DELETE`, `MATCH`, `MERGE`, `SET`,
+`REMOVE`, `INDEX`, `AUTH`, `STREAM`.
+
+We could naturally cluster those privileges into groups:
+
+  * Privilege to access data (`MATCH`)
+  * Privilege to modify data (`MERGE`, `SET`)
+  * Privilege to create and delete data (`CREATE`, `DELETE`, `REMOVE`)
+  * Privilege to index data (`INDEX`)
+  * Privilege to use data streaming (`STREAM`)
+  * Privilege to view and alter users, roles and privileges (`AUTH`)
+
+If you are unfamiliar with any of these commands, you can look them up in our
+[reference guide](../reference_guide/01_reference-overview.md).
+
+Similarly, the complete list of commands which can be executed under `AUTH`
+privilege can be viewed in the
+[appropriate article](../reference_guide/08_security.md) within  our reference
+guide.
+
+The remainder of this article outlines a recommended workflow of
+user management within an internal database of a fictitious company.
+
+### Creating an Administrator
+
+As it was stated in the introduction, after the first user is created, Memgraph
+will execute a query for a given user if the effective status of a corresponding
+privilege evaluates to `GRANT`. As a corollary, the person that created the
+first user might not be able to perform any meaningful action after their
+session had ended. To prevent that from happening, we strongly recommend
+the first created user to be an administrator which is granted all privileges.
+
+Therefore, let's create a user named `admin` and set its' password to `0000`.
+This can be done by executing:
+
+```openCypher
+  CREATE USER admin IDENTIFIED BY '0000';
+```
+
+Granting all privileges to our `admin` user can be done as follows:
+
+```openCypher
+  GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES to admin;
+```
+
+At this point, the current user can close their session and log into a new
+one as an `admin` user they have just created. The remainder of the article
+is written from the viewpoint of an administrator which is granted
+all privileges.
+
+### Creating Other Users
+
+Our fictitious company is internally divided into teams, and each team has
+its own supervisor. All employees of the company need to access and modify
+data within the database.
+
+Creating a user account for a new hire named Alice can be done as follows:
+
+```openCypher
+  CREATE USER alice IDENTIFIED BY '0042';
+```
+
+Alice should also be granted a privilege to access data, which can be done by
+executing the following:
+
+```openCypher
+  GRANT MATCH, MERGE, SET TO alice;
+```
+
+### Creating User Roles
+
+Each team supervisor needs to have additional privileges that allow them to
+create new data or delete existing data from the database. Instead of tediously
+granting additional privileges to each supervisor using language constructs from
+the previous chapter, we could do so by creating a new user role for
+supervisors.
+
+Creating a user role named `supervisor` can be done by executing the following
+command:
+
+```openCypher
+  CREATE ROLE supervisor;
+```
+
+Granting the privilege to create and delete data to our newly created role can
+be done as follows:
+
+```openCypher
+  GRANT CREATE, DELETE, REMOVE TO supervisor;
+```
+
+Finally, we need to assign that role to each of the supervisors. Suppose, a user
+named `bob` is indeed a supervisor within the company. Assigning them that role
+within the database can be done by the following command:
+
+```
+  SET ROLE FOR bob TO supervisor;
+```

+## Security
+
+Before reading this article we highly recommend going through a how-to guide
+on [managing user privileges](../how_to_guides/05_manage-user-privileges.md)
+which contains more thorough explanations of the concepts behind `openCypher`
+commands listed in this article.
+
+### Users
+
+Creating a user can be done by executing the following command:
+
+```openCypher
+  CREATE USER user_name [IDENTIFIED BY 'password'];
+```
+If the user should authenticate themself on each session, i.e. provide their
+password on each session, the part within the brackets is mandatory. Otherwise,
+the password is set to `null` and the user will be allowed to log-in using
+any password provided that they provide the correct username.
+
+You can also set or alter a user's password anytime by issuing the following
+command:
+
+```openCypher
+  SET PASSWORD FOR user_name TO 'new_password';
+```
+
+Removing a user's password, i.e. allowing the user to log-in using any
+password can be done by setting it to `null` as follows:
+
+```openCypher
+  SET PASSWORD FOR user_name TO null;
+```
+
+### User Roles
+
+Each user can be assigned at most one user role. One can think of user roles
+as abstractions which capture the privilege levels of a set of users. For
+example, suppose that `Dominik` and `Marko` belong to upper management of
+a certain company. It makes sense to grant them a set of privileges that other
+users are not entitled to so, instead of granting those privileges to each
+of them, we can create a role with those privileges called `manager`
+which we assign to `Dominik` and `Marko`.
+
+In other words, Each privilege that is granted to a user role is automatically
+granted to a user (unless it has been explicitly denied to that user).
+Similarly, each privilege that is denied to a user role is automatically denied
+to a user (even if it has been explicitly granted to that user).
+
+Creating a user role can be done by executing the following command:
+
+```openCypher
+  CREATE ROLE role_name;
+```
+
+Assigning a user role to a certain user can be done by the following command:
+
+```openCypher
+  SET ROLE FOR user_name TO role_name;
+```
+
+Removing the role from the user can be done by:
+
+```openCypher
+  CLEAR ROLE FOR user_name;
+```
+
+Finally, showing all users that have a certain role can be done as:
+
+```openCypher
+  SHOW USERS FOR role_name;
+```
+
+Similarly, querying which role a certain user has can be done as:
+
+```openCypher
+  SHOW ROLE FOR user_name;
+```
+
+### Privileges
+
+At the moment, privileges are confined to users' abilities to perform certain
+`OpenCypher` queries. Namely users can be given permission to execute a subset
+of the following commands: `CREATE`, `DELETE`, `MATCH`, `MERGE`, `SET`,
+`REMOVE`, `INDEX`, `AUTH`, `STREAM`.
+
+Granting a certain set of privileges to a specific user or user role can be
+done by issuing the following command:
+
+```openCypher
+  GRANT privilege_list TO user_or_role;
+```
+
+For example, granting `AUTH` and `STREAM` privileges to users with the role
+`moderator` would be written as:
+
+```openCypher
+  GRANT AUTH, STREAM TO moderator:
+```
+
+Similarly, denying privileges is done using the `DENY` keyword instead of
+`GRANT`.
+
+Both denied and granted privileges can be revoked, meaning that their status is
+not defined for that user or role. Revoking is done using the `REVOKE` keyword.
+The users should note that, although semantically unintuitive, the level of a
+certain privilege can be raised by using `REVOKE`. For instance, suppose a user
+has been denied a `STREAM` privilege, but the role it belongs to is granted
+that privilege. Currently, the user is unable to use data streaming features,
+but, after revoking the user's `STREAM` privilege, they will be able to do so.
+
+Finally, if you wish to grant, deny or revoke all privileges and find it tedious
+to explicitly list them, you can use the `ALL PRIVILEGES` construct instead.
+For example, revoking all privileges from user `jdoe` can be done with the
+following command:
+
+```openCypher
+  REVOKE ALL PRIVILEGES FROM jdoe;
+```
+
+Finally, obtaining the status of each privilege for a certain user or role can be
+done by issuing the following command:
+
+```openCypher
+  SHOW PRIVILEGES FOR user_or_role;
+```
