Fix Text (F-3783r1_fix)
Create custom roles for each discrete application user / administrator function required for your database and assign the minimum privileges necessary to perform the function. Assign custom roles to accounts. Revoke assignment of predefined roles from accounts where not documented in the System Security Plan and authorized by the IAO.
