Hello, I can not understand the use of Deny and Revoke, what is the difference?
 
Very basic definitions:

Let's say you give me SELECT permission on table TEST.

If you DENY me SELECT on TEST, I still have SELECT permission, I just can't use it.

If you REVOKE my SELECT permission, I can't use it because I don't have it.
