Table definitions by themselves don't generate CRUD functionality. The only place you get automatic CRUD functionality without explicitly creating it is appadmin. However, appadmin is only accessible by someone who also has access to the admin app, so the exposure should be fairly limited there (and if you wrote some code that prevented access to a particular table in appadmin, any user with appadmin access could simply go into admin to change that code, unless you remove the admin app).
Anyway, appadmin is just a controller in your app, so you are free to remove it or alter it, and you can easily control what it can access via code in your models. For example, you could do: if request.controller != 'appadmin': db.define_table('mytable', ...) The above will prevent the table from being defined whenever appadmin is the requested controller, so it won't appear in appadmin.
