I'm in the process of designing a new database for an application. I'd like to be mindful of the security from the start (which should be the norm!). Anyone got a link to a resource describing the best way to use schemas to implement good security?

By using schemas, I mean not just dumping everything under the default dbo schema. Surely there's a schema best practises out there? Can't find it if there is...

...And the obligatory MSDN reference:

Thanks Robert,It's not quite what I was after, but these are the same links that I'm using to piece the require information together, so guess that it's the answer.
