Presentation Layer  SharePoint Mode –Report Definitions are published to a SharePoint Library –Permissions to access the report definition are based on SharePoint permissions ▪Note: Permissions to access the data behind the report is often different than permissions to access the report definition itself –Reports are rendered within SharePoint  Native Mode –Installs a basic ASP.net Application to an IIS Site to handle navigation, permissions, report repository, etc.  Note: Upon installing SSRS from your SQL Server Media, you will be prompted to use Native Mode or SharePoint Mode. Once you make a selection, you cannot change it without reinstalling SSRS. However, reports can be migrated from one instance of SSRS to another regardless of deployment mode.

Unless you have appropriate permissions, you will not be able to access the report, or even know that it exists. –The 2 nd layer can be set within your report’s connection to your data source, which can restrict the data that the user can see.
