> When you connect to SQL Server through a Windows or Active Directory (AD) group, certain operations can create an implicit login for your group membership without executing a CREATE LOGIN statement. This implicit login creation maintains referential integrity of system metadata within SQL Server. The implicit login doesn't have explicit connect permission to the database, so if you're removed from the group, that login can't connect by itself.
