Ektron CMS400.Net Reference
Permissions determine which actions users and members of user groups can perform on content, library items, and content folders. For example, you allow your Webmaster to perform the most advanced actions, such as adding folders, editing folder properties, and deleting folders. At the same time, you could restrict content contributors to viewing, editing, and adding new content.
You can set permissions for a content folder or content item. When you assign permissions to a content folder, it affects all of its subfolders unless you break inheritance for a subfolder.
