                                                 #SPSSAN
Best Practices
SharePoint Permissions
 • Use fine-grained permissions only when
     business case requires it
 •   Break permission inheritance infrequently as
     possible
 •   Use domain groups to assign permissions to
     sites when possible
 •   Assign permissions at the highest level
     possible
 •   Make use of appropriate SP roles

                                        #SPSSAN
Best Practices
SharePoint Permission Levels & Scopes
 • Don’t modify or delete a default permission
    level
   • Copy a default permission level & modify it
 • The maximum # of unique security scopes set
   for a list should not exceed 1,000
 • Use group membership rather than individual
   membership in your scopes



                                          #SPSSAN
Scenario
 • The Company
 • Each department owns a site
 • Department site owner to manage site… but delegates
   permissions to someone else
 • Delegate should not modify site, pages, etc. only
   add/remove (manage) users
 • Delegate should also have standard “Contribute”
   access to site




                                             #SPSSAN
Required Administrative Credentials




                            #SPSSAN
How-to: SharePoint interface
1. Navigate to top-level site
2. Site Actions > Site Permissions (or Site Settings for
   Publishing)

3. Click on Permission Levels in the Ribbon
4. Select the permission level to copy – Contribute
5. Scroll down & select Copy Permission Level




                                            #SPSSAN
How-to: SharePoint interface
6.   Name the new permission level (User Manager) & enter a
     description (i.e. “ Use this permission to Manage Users”)
7. Select desired permissions
   •   Check Enumerate Permissions (Manage will auto-select,
       Deselect it)
8. Scroll down & click Create


The custom permission level is ready to use!
• Create a SharePoint group for each department; i.e.
  “Accounting User Managers”
• Give the group the “User Manager” permission level
• Make the owner of this SP Group, the Site Owner or SCA
• Change the owner of the Member & Visitor groups

                                                 #SPSSAN
How-to: PowerShell
PS > $spWeb = Get-SPWeb http://sharepoint.contoso.com
Create a new object
PS > $plevel = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPRoleDefinition


Add name and description
PS > $plevel.Name = "Custom: User Manager"
PS > $plevel.Description = “Enumerate Permissions"


Set the base permissions
PS > $plevel.BasePermissions = “EnumeratePermissions”



                                                     #SPSSAN
How-to: PowerShell
Add the permission level to your site
PS > $spWeb.RoleDefinitions.Add($plevel)
Clean up
PS > $spWeb.Dispose()

See base permissions that are available
PS > [system.enum]::GetNames("Microsoft.SharePoint.SPBasePermissions")

  • 8. Best Practices SharePoint Permission Levels & Scopes • Don’t modify or delete a default permission level • Copy a default permission level & modify it • The maximum # of unique security scopes set for a list should not exceed 1,000 • Use group membership rather than individual membership in your scopes #SPSSAN
  • 9. Scenario • The Company • Each department owns a site • Department site owner to manage site… but delegates permissions to someone else • Delegate should not modify site, pages, etc. only add/remove (manage) users • Delegate should also have standard “Contribute” access to site #SPSSAN

  3. You may hear this a lot, but without sponsors we wouldn’t be here. Visit their booths, say thanks.I am an informal guy, so this will be an interactive session if you want it that way. Please call me Mr. Rockwell, raise your hand , etc, according to the pre-defined points within my presentation designated for questions. Ha, Ask questions throughout or there will be time at the end.Interject your knowledge & experience on the topic, that is what SPS is about – people sharing SharePoint knowledge.Tweet using #spssanhashtag & share with those who were not fortunate enough to attend this session or this event. ;-) #permissionlevels
  4. SP Security overview Critical terminology related to this topic| Understanding inheritance & scopes | Best practices | Quick How-toContact information & reference links will be in the slides at the end & I will post this slide set after the eventoh I will need to ask for everyone’s ID’s before I begin…this is a security related session after-allHow many here are SP Admins? What other roles are represented here today?Permissions grant the ability to perform specific actions.
  5. Users & Business Units are empowered to manage their own content within SP. Some organizations go as far as enabling the end-users to completely control the structure and functionality of their own SP sites. For SharePoint Administrators coming from an IT organization this can become a nightmare, for SP Admins coming from the Business it is a bigger nightmare. How do you protect corporate data, allow your end-users to manage themselves, and keep them from shooting themselves? Learn about SP Security.Permission levels are pre-defined sets of permissions used to grant users access to content in SP.Users is someone who has an account that can be authenticated…Groups(set of users)Securable Objects-levels within SP that can be secured; sites, lists, libraries, items.Inheritancenext slideService App Admin-delegated by farm admin, manage specific svc app only, cannot create new svc appsFeature Admin-delegated by farm or svc admin, manage subset of svc app settings for specific feature (UPS-manage audiences or profiles e.g.)Site Collection Admin-full control all sites in collection cannot be overridden except w/web app policy.You can assign a permission level to a user or group for a specific securable object (site, list, or item). Individual users or groups can have different permission levels for different entities.
  6. Inheritance – used to describe how user access is created by default in SP. A scope is the security boundary for a securable object and any of its children that do not have a separate security boundary defined.Securable objects w/in SP inherit the scope of its parent; When s.o. is created it is w/same user access as its parent. So Inheritance means that Permissions & access are managed at the ‘top’/parent level: any updates to parent s.o. will also update the child s.o.A scope contains an Access Control List (ACL), but unlike NTFS ACLs, a scope can include security principals that are specific to Windows SharePoint Services. The members of an ACL for a scope can include Windows users, user accounts that are not Windows users (such as forms-based accounts), Active Directory groups, or SharePoint groups.
  7. FGP – “expensive” in admin oversight & performanceSite level permissions require less processing, easier to maintainUse SP Roles, don’t give more permissions than is necessary: Farm AdministratorService Application AdministratorFeature AdministratorSite Collection AdministratorBecause it is inefficient to maintain permissions for individual users, MS recommends that you use group permissions as much as possible. Particularly if you are using fine-grained permissions,you should use groups to avoid having to track permissions for individual user accounts. Because people can move in and out of teams and change responsibilities frequently, you might not want to track all of those changes and continually update the permissions for uniquely secured objects.
  8. built-in limit of 50,000 scopes for a List or Library – addition of scopes after that limit is prohibited (can be changed w/PS) *Effective limit is 1-2kLittle known best practice: remove all users from your system & your security concerns will significantly diminish
  9. Anyone have another scenario?
  10. Before you start, know that you have a login with the appropriate credentials to allow you to accomplish the task.Farm Admin can add themselves or you to these groups. SP Farm account or your SQL dba can be used to give you the PS role.It is always good if you have a sqldba to lean on and if you can use them unmercifully when things go wrong.Another Good Habit, give permissions to your account to do these tasks, then Remove them when done. Making that part of the process helps you avoid silly mistakes or problems if an account is compromised.
  11. We will walk thru the steps first then Demo after these two slidesI like the “tell me what you are going to tell me and then tell me” method of presenting. It is easier to follow because you know what is coming.If you don’t have Permission Levels in the Ribbon then guess what, you don’t have permissions to do this task…you are not a SCA.Why do I have “copy” in step 4? Remember our Best Practices? Don’t modify or delete a default permission level…copy it.There are places within SP where it is difficult to do some tasks, this isn’t one of them. Click the nice button
  12. Edit the Permissions of a group, add the “Manage Users” permission level for the site. Manage Permissions  -  Create and change permission levels on the Web site and assign permissions to users and groups. [allows them to CHANGE their own permissions]Enumerate Permissions  -  Enumerate permissions on the Web site, list, folder, document, or list item. Alternatively, you may create the Permission Level with ONLY Enumerate Permissions (Create new rather than Copy Contribute) and then add this permission level to the SP group, along with their normal permissions (Contribute or whatever).We will use this alternate method in the PowerShell example, but first let’s look at these previous steps again in SharePoint. DEMO Create “My New Group”
  13. Create a new object of the type Microsoft.SharePoint.SPRoleDefinition. Then, add a name and description and set the base permissions that you want to useRemember, we are demonstrating the “2 permission level” option here. If you want to use a single PL then additional permissions will be needed for the users to View the site, list, library, items etc. and browse around. Look at the visitor PL to get an idea of how many permissions are required.
  14. Best Practice: CLEAN UPPS > [enum]::GetNames("Microsoft.SharePoint.SPBasePermissions") also worksFor a full list of the base permissions in alphabetic order use the following:[Microsoft.SharePoint.SPBasePermissions] | gm –Static –MemberType Property | select NameDemo PS here Talk about adding the PL to a group/user using PS, in the text file on vm
  15. Provide me with one-liners to make my sessions more fun. Ask me to quit, I will take it personal and hunt you down.
