That's not security, it's obscurity.

Yes, I used the wrong expression.

You can grant / revoke access to anything a user should or should not be
able to access anyway.

It's a web application user. I was trying to make some database magic,
hardening SQL injections... But its wrong, the application must be
secure. Unfortunelly I can't have a database user for each web user...

Thanks...
