• Private: Allows access to the class member only in the same class.
• Protected: Allows access to the class member only within the same class and from inherited classes.
• Internal: Allows access to the class member only in the same assembly.
• Protected internal: Allows access to the class member only within the same class, from inherited classes, and other classes in the same assembly.
• Static: Indicates that the member can be called without first instantiating the class.
