Task: 1 NTFS (New Technology File System) Folder
permission
NTFS (New Technology File System) is important in managing file and folder security.

Permissions Overviews
Read: Allows the users to see files and subfolders in the folder and view folder ownership, permissions,
and attributes.

Write: The user can create new files and subfolders within the folder, change folder attributes, and view
folder ownership and permissions.

List Folder Contents: Allows the user to see the names of files and subfolders in the folder.

Read and Execute: Allows the user to browse through folders to reach other files and folders, even if the
users do not have permission for those folders. It also allows users to perform actions permitted by the
Read and List Folder Contents permission.

Modify: Allows the users to delete the folder and perform actions permitted by the Write permission
and the Read and Execute permission.

Full Control: The user can change permissions, take ownership, and delete subfolders and files.
Administrators, owners of files or folders, and users with full control permission can assign NTFS
permissions to other users and groups.

Deny: Denies a user account or group all access to a folder and denies the full control permission.

Task: 2 FAT 32 and NTFS file system

Security: NTFS supports file-level security with permissions and encryption, FAT 32 does not.

Compatibility: FAT 32 is more compatible with various operating systems, while NTFS is more modern
and primarily used in Windows environments.

Effective permissions in NTFS are the combined result of explicit and inherited permissions.

Step-2: Open Computer -> Right-click the folder (End-of-year stock report) Select properties and Click
Security tab -> Click Advanced.

Inheritance permission is the process by which a file or folder acquires permissions from its
parent folder. In essence, this type of permission is used to limit or remove the original permissions
granted to the user by the administrator. If you wish to verify which user’s permissions you intend to
limit or revoke, use the following step.

Step-1: Right-click the Folder (End-of-year stock report) Select Properties and Click the Security tab->
Click Advanced.
