Appreciate the feedback. I don't think the granularity we're looking for is 
achievable at this time. Or with R2.

Thanks!

I should clarify that second line. It isn't that reporting has no checking for 
RBAC, it is just not fully enabled for RBAC so it wouldn't filter down to the 
objects you are allowed to manage.

In 2012 R2 they are adding granular security so that reports respect the RBAC 
roles and scopes the administrative user has applied to them.

Right now the reporting has no checking for RBAC when the user runs a report.

Also, changing the security on a folder in SSRS will just result in the 
security being reset on that folder at periodic intervals.

Good afternoon,

I have a question for anyone that may know/offer an opinion/solution for our 
reporting requirements within our environment:

Is it possible between SSRS and ConfigMgr 2012 to achieve granular security on 
custom folders within Reporting, and those same custom folders be displayed 
within the Console? For the custom folders, the desired configuration for 
security would be that certain administrators would have full control over 
Reports in their pertinent folder, but no other folder, and still maintain the 
ability to "run" the built-in ConfigMgr reports. This is in consideration of 
the following scenario:


1)      One group of support engineers manage the infrastructure and need to 
have full access to manage and maintain the integrity of the ConfigMgr 
environment

a.      This is achieved/configured. Just outlining the tiered support structure

2)      Support is provided to admins that do not have full control in 
ConfigMgr, and the admins are delegated access through RBA for maintaining the 
systems they manage

a.      This is where the Reporting rights come in to play. These admins would 
need to be able to create custom reports for their assets, but not have control 
over the canned ConfigMgr reports, except to run the report, and would not have 
the ability to manage any other admins reports outside of their own site 
designation


If Security Scopes extended to the Report objects, we could offer that 
granularity easily. Just wanted to make sure if this is even a possible and, 
importantly, a supported configuration. I've read some information on what will 
change with R2 for Reporting and RBA, but didn't really see if that level of 
security was being introduced or not.

I hope this all makes sense. Thank you!

Best regards,

Megan Wills
