6. 6 | SharePoint Saturday St. Louis 2014 SharePoint Security ▪ Active Directory Security Groups ▪ SharePoint Groups ▪ Direct Permissions ▪ Permission Levels When you start looking at security, chances are good that you start with the basics: who is allowed to access SharePoint resources, what resources are they allowed to see, what resources are they allowed to use, and how are they allowed to use them.

7. 7 | SharePoint Saturday St. Louis 2014 Active Directory Security Groups This is the backbone to provisioning end user access into you Web Applications, Site Collections and Sub-Sites ▪ This allows easy transitions of user access by memberships to AD groups. ▪ Copy another users access by looking at their AD memberships ▪ Can delete a User from the User Information List without harming their access into the site collection

8. 8 | SharePoint Saturday St. Louis 2014 SharePoint Groups ▪ Use SP Groups to encapsulate the Permission Levels – Owners – Members – Visitors – Custom Levels ▪ Add AD Security Groups ▪ Add Users

9. 9 | SharePoint Saturday St. Louis 2014 Direct Permissions ▪ Bad, Very Bad ▪ Hard to determine who has what access ▪ Need to leverage third-party to find out ▪ Better to use a SharePoint Group
