ASP.NET

I have an ASP.NET application which runs under the Classic .NET AppPool in IIS.

I have a report to render from my website.

The problem is SQL Server keeps telling me that it failed to create a connection to the datasource, because login failed for user IUSR.

After adding that user directly to the databse I could get the report to work, but I'm concerned about security.

By doing that, am I opening my specified databases to all websites hosted on IIS? Or is that account identity-specific?
