Are you really really sure you want to do that? Setting access rights on user level quickly becomes an administrative nightmare. :)

If you do want to do it anyway...

var _securityRepository = ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<IContentSecurityRepository>();
var startPageSecurity = _securityRepository.Get(ContentReference.StartPage).CreateWritableClone() as IContentSecurityDescriptor;
if (startPageSecurity != null)
{
     if (startPageSecurity.IsInherited) 
            startPageSecurity.ToLocal();
     startPageSecurity.AddEntry(new AccessControlEntry("daniel.ovaska", AccessLevel.Read, SecurityEntityType.User));
     _securityRepository.Save(startPageSecurity.ContentLink, startPageSecurity, SecuritySaveType.Replace);
}
