The ‘Shares’ tool protects all files in Earthlight. Since Resources are self-contained files the ‘File control’ and ‘File ownership’ permissions apply to each and every one of them independently. As mentioned earlier the model for Layers is based on Master – Link paradigm. This means that ‘File control’ and “File ownership’ permissions act on them in similar way to Resources but ‘Data control’ permission can only be applied in one place (on the Reference) for all users.
Important: Unlike the previous Earthlight security model where each Layer carried the data access permissions the new model simplifies data access control as it creates a single point of entry to particular dataset. |
