Here is the video from SQL in Sixty Seconds series.
If you are going to say that I should have created a user role or application role (to prevent unauthorized index modification) with the right amount of permissions, I totally agree with you. However, this solution was chosen by my client and they find it very easy to implement. If you have ever worked with me before on Comprehensive Database Performance Health Check, you would know that I do not like triggers.
Here are my few recent videos and I would like to know what is your feedback about them.

I hope, this will restrict all user to create index, so how can we create an index if really required. do we need to delete this trigger?
Yes, you will need to disable or delete the trigger.
As I mentioned, It would be best to create a security role.
