Are there any white papers on this topic? It is quite complex and I would like to learn more about it, since I'm the records manager for my company. It was already set up before I got here, so I am trying to manage it, but I would really like some insight and best practices on how it is set up, especially with regards to the security properties applied.
My co-worker explained to me the other day about the security properties. We assign a group to a records manager folder and deny them the right to see/edit etc the folder only. We then add the same group to the folder again and allow them to Read and Browse all of the files and sub-folders beneath the original folder that we had denied them access to see. Basically, we are denying them the ability to navigate to, view and interact with the actual files, but we allow them access to the file contents through the shortcut that they see on the user end. Finally this is making sense to me, but I'm sure there are more best practices out there, if someone could please share those?
