SSRS security to view folder security rights

What access is necessary for a user to view (not be able to change) folder level security for a particular SSRS folder. Managers are consistently asking me to send them what security groups have access to a particular production SSRS folder.
Allowing them to be able to view the Properties-security of a folder with out the right to change would be helpful.

MicMikey,
The original response to your question was in regards to security. If you are trying to determine the data source that a report is using, that is an entirely different question. I would suggest that if your question has changed, you open a new
question in the forum so people can answer it appropriately.
Regardless, to see which data source a report is using, you can use Report Manager, and select "Manage" from the drop down on that particular report and view which data source its using from the "Data Sources" tab on the left. Otherwise you can write
a script using the SOAP APIs. Either way, each time run a script or query to get this data, the query or output data should reflect the most up to date data. Historical data of what folders were called is not kept in the DB.

Cannot view the folder security after removed the default "users" group from folder

Hi guys
Due to the domain change, I am doing a windows 2003 server migration to windows 2012 for a file server.
Tones of data have been copied from the old 2003 server to the new setup 2012 server.
We need remove the "builtin\users" group from the folder security to maintain correct rights access of user to network folder.
Once the "builtin\users" group has been removed, the account in domain admin group can no longer read the folder security.
Has anyone faced the similar situation?
Or, is there any change in folder security rights of Windows 2012?
Thanks in advance

Folder security in SSRS

We our migrating our reporting services to a new server. The current reporting services folder security is setup incorrectly and I have to change the security for EVERY FOLDER (hundreds of them). I have to go to the drop down > Security >
Revert to Parent Security for every single folder on our SSRS!
Is there not a way to set all sub folders to inherit security? Like on Windows folder security you just "Replace all child object permissions with inheritable permissions from this object" on the parent folder and it applies all the permissions
to every child folder.
SQL Server 2014 Business Intelligence edition.

Hi Kelvin.uk,
According to your description, you want to set all folders which exist in report manager to inherit security in a batch, right?
In this scenario, we can use Windows PowerShell script to achieve your requirement. Using the script, we should get all folders in the report manager, then check if the folder inherit security. If not, set the folder inherit security again. For your requirement,
you can execute the script below:
$ReportServerUri = "http://<ServerName>/ReportServer/ReportService2010.asmx";
$Proxy = New-WebServiceProxy -Uri $ReportServerUri -Namespace SSRS.ReportingService2010 -UseDefaultCredential ;
#check out all members of $Proxy
#$Proxy | Get-Member
#http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/reportservice2010.reportingservice2010.listchildren.aspx
$items = $Proxy.ListChildren("/", $true);
foreach($item in $items){
if($item.TypeName -eq "Folder")
write-host $item.Name
$inherited = $true
$itempolicies = $Proxy.GetPolicies($item.Path,[ref]$inherited)
if (-not $inherited){
$Proxy.InheritParentSecurity($item.Path)
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Report folder security issue

Hi,
We are struggling with this issue, I have various report folders in Explore within Workspace. I would like my users to view (and run) reports in the folders for which permissions have been granted. Even after granting permissions, my users are able to view all report folders and also able to run reports from them.
How do we restrict users to view only relevant folders for which permissions have been granted for. My users are grouped in various groups and folder security is being given to these groups. All my reports are FR and some WA reports.
Am I missing something silly completely? Any guidance will be of great help. Thanks in advance.

Two things i have run into:
1) the group WORLD has access to the folders. You need to remove this group from each folder.
2) The users have admin rights for Reporting. This overrides folder security.

Windows Active Session logon state security event viewer

Hi Team,
i have question.
i already enable audit logging policy from GPO, especially logon logoff audit.
at server event viewer show (security/audit success) display log off and log on event id. 4634 for logoff and 4624 for logon
my question are :
1. Why event viewer always show computer name at account name information? event viewer 4624 logon
can i get the user name info from this event id 4624 logon
2. At event id 4634 logoff, security id and account name info always show computer name account
can i get user name too?
3. what if the active user log on user never log off ( I mean user only disconnect from RDP session ).
can i get info from security event viewer whose user that being active remote to server?
Thanks
Regards :)

There should be both a computer and a user authentication since both so log onto the domain.
Even though a user may never log off of a machine they still need to establisj a session with other machines for services. After the intial logon the Kerberos TGT session ticket may be good for the next week (7 days by default) the logs should
still show all newly established sessions. You may need to review all DC's within the site of the user not just one DC, since any DC within the site could be providing the service.

Folder security Server 2012 RS Standard

I have a folder that has the domain admin group with full control. I am a member of the Domain admin group. However, when I access the folder my individual username gets added to the security in the folder. Shouldn't I be covered by being a member of the
Domain admins?
Why does it add my user to the folder?

Is the UAC prompting you saying you are denied and asking you to "click" Continue to continue? As Chris asked, is your username or perhaps your account in another group that has been Denied?
See if this helps:
When you click Continue for folder access in Windows Explorer, your user account is added to the ACL for the folder

Problem: securely erasing home folder after enabling file vault

I enabled file vault. It took 4 days (125 GB) to "securely erase home folder", then when it finally reached 100% I got an error message that it could not be erased after all. I also now got an icon on the desktop (protected house) showing my home folder. Anybody experience with this? What do I do to securely erase? What can I do to speed it up? I have 4GB RAM and a HD of 500GB

open /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app
At the prompt type:
diskutil secureErase freespace 0 /
(press return)
This will secure erase free space on your boot volume.
Level "0" (zero) is a Single-pass zero-fill erase. Levels 0 through 4 are supported.
Here is a full description of the different erase levels: 0 - Single-pass zero-fill erase.
A. 1 - Single-pass random-fill erase.
B. 2 - US DoD 7-pass secure erase.
C. 3 - Gutmann algorithm 35-pass secure erase.
D. 4 - US DoE algorithm 3-pass secure erase.
for more info (in Terminal) type:
man diskutil
(press return)
This should take considerably less time than 4 days. On my Mac Pro with 162GB boot volume,
130GB free (I keep my data on a different volume) it takes about 10 minutes using level "0".
Disk Free Space Warnings are normal during operation and can be ignored.
more info about it from apple support:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24002
You can invoke the erase procedure from Disk Utility GUI interface, but it usually is quicker
when run from terminal.

Secure pdf viewing on ipad

How can i view a secure pdf on an ipad?

The Adobe Reader for iPad supports viewing of encrypted and LCRM protected PDF's. There are several other "secure" or "protection" schemes created by third parties, and we don't have the ability to open those documents. Have you tried your secure PDF in the Adobe Reader (available for free in the App Store).

How do I setup security policies without Adobe LiveCycle Rights Management?

Hi Guys,
First of all I want to excuse for my english language skills . We have about 30 Users which are using Adobe Acrobat XI Standard. Our management board defined security policies for PDF files. We exported the security policies (Edit -> Preferences -> Security -> Security Settings -> Export). Then we got a file with the extension 'acrobatsecuritysettings'. Next we moved that file to a folder which everybody has read permissions. We ticked at a test computer "load security settings from a server" and type in the path to the file in this way:
smb://server/share/filename.acrobatsecuritysettings
I guess the syntax is correct but there are no security policies at 'Tools -> Protection -> Encrypt -> Manage Security Policies'. Any ideas?
I am very thankful for each reply.

Interesting. Adobe obviously feel that smb is a URL - sorry, no idea what form their URL would take. You could double check that it is accessible with no username or password (i.e. guest access) since you have put no credentials in the URL.
For the intranet (htp) server - you could put it anywhere within the files making up the site. For instance you could create a folder private inside the web root, and put the file in there. You can type the URL in a browser to make sure it serves the credential file.

Details on Force Folder Security

When I create a folder in UCM, there is a boolean field called "Force Folder Security". How does this folder metadata get used?

Hi
CollectionForceFolderSecurityEnabled is related affect Security Group and Account for contents that are in the folder . If it is set to true, then any any new, copied, or moved content placed into that folder will have the content’s security fields overridden to match the Security Group and Account of the folder. If it it set to false and you move content from one folder to another, the content keeps its original Security Group and Account, and does not change to match the Security Group and Account set on the new folder.
Hope this helps .
Thanks

How do I view the security certificate in Safari 7

In Safari Version 7.0 (9537.71) under Mavericks (10.9) , when you load a secure website (https://some_secure_site.com), the address bar displays the https "lock" indicator for a brief second while the site is loading. Once the site is loaded the https lock button disappears.
1. Is there a way to configure Safari so that it doesn't hide the security status?
2. Is there a way to view the security status and the actual certificate from within Safari once the page loads and the button disappears?
Thank you!

I just had the same problem, found this discussion and disabled my extensions. I then turned them back on one at a time. The cause of the issue for me was the Evernote Web Clipper 6.1. I've removed it from my Safari and the address bar displays the https status correctly now.

Why Adobe doesn't touch proprietary raw files
Touching the bits of raw image formats that aren't publicly documented well (or at all) seems like a bad idea, bound to end in tears. Microsoft is advising customers not to edit metadata using Vista, saying,
Microsoft has received reports of compatibility issues with Nikon NEF files after installing version 1.0 of Nikon's raw codec posted in January. Tagging the raw files through Windows Vista or the Microsoft Photo Info tool after the codec is installed appears to cause these files to become unreadable in other applications, such as Adobe Photoshop. [Via]
I'm sure the problem will get sorted out soon enough, but it does illustrate why Camera Raw and Lightroom insist on using sidecar data files for raw formats other than DNG. It's less convenient, but we've seen far too many conflicts arise from touching metadata in these other formats. DNG was designed with flexible internal storage of metadata in mind, and now Lightroom and Bridge offer conversion to DNG as part of their photo-import processes. (For what it's worth, on my MacBook Pro, converting an 8MP CR2 file to DNG takes roughly 1-1.5 seconds--not a bad price for portability & reduced file size.)

You will note this this was posed on Feb 12th 2007 and that it appears to still be an issue. Oh dear.
Sure would be nice to see the link to where you got this.
This refers to problems using Microsoft software and Vista, not Adobe software and Vista. I believe it is saying that Adobe properly handles both .nef and .dng files. I have no idea how this quote relates to this thread at all.

Upgrade of Business Objects v3.0 to v3.1 makes folder security disappear

Hi All,
re: Upgrade of Business Objects v3.0 to v3.1 makes folder security disappear
We just upgraded to v3.1 and the security I put in place in v3.0 did not carry over for the folders. Our company wanted to secure the folders per SAP security role, so I did that by breaking the inheritence relationship from the Root Folder on child folders that they should not have access to (see SAP note#1281763 for explaination on this type of procedure). It worked fine in v3.0, but after the upgrade, all of those changes had disappeared and every SAP role was able to see every folder. This was a major effort to secure those folders and I do not want to do it again. Also, we did import the roles into the upgrade BO v3.1 before we imported the BO structure, which as told to us by SAP, would work and not cause this issue.
Thanks for your help!

Hello Gary,
I recommend to post this query to the [BusinessObjects Enterprise Administration|BI Platform; forum.
This forum is dedicated to topics related to administration and configuration of BusinessObjects Enterprise, BusinessObjects Edge, and Crystal Reports Server.
It is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
Also, all BOE Administration queries remain in one place and thus can be easily searched in one place.
