View Full Version : Restricting File Copy

Unfortunately, read permissions means copy permissions.

However, on our systems we have used NTFS and "restricted
user" rights to our advantage by disabling access to
removable storage and preventing write/change to anywhere
outside of user directories. While this prevents files
from being offloaded (assuming physical security), the
user could still zip the database and email it - but
that's what content filters are for.

Hope it helps,
