In the context of MS SQL Server 2005
Is there a way to stop delete, and update sql statements being executed against the database that don’t have a WHERE clause?
Ideally it would be nice to restrict this ‘blocking’ to a set of users/roles.
Simply answered: no.
It is your responsibility to make sure you don’t send those kind of queries. SQL Server cannot “know” or “find out” when a command is truly missing a WHERE clause, or when it really should be executed without any WHERE.
