Access modifiers are an integral part of object-oriented programming. Access modifiers are used to implement the encapsulation of OOP. Access modifiers allow you to define who does or who doesn’t have access to certain features.
There are 6 different types of Access Modifiers in C#:
| Modifier | Description |
| public | There are no restrictions on accessing public members. |
| private | Access is limited to within the class definition. This is the default access modifier type if none is formally specified |
| protected | Access is limited to within the class definition and any class that inherits from the class |
| internal | Access is limited exclusively to classes defined within the current project assembly |
| protected internal | Access is limited to the current assembly and types derived from the containing class. All members in the current project and all members in derived class can access the variables. |
| private protected | Access is limited to the containing class or types derived from the containing class within the current assembly. |
