- Modifying the access permissions on an object
- How security descriptors are set on new directory objects
- Creating a Security Descriptor for a New Directory Object
- Using inheritance of access permissions to enable administrative access to an entire subtree of the directory
- Creating, modifying, and reading the default security descriptor for an object class
- Creating, setting, and checking control access rights for operations that go beyond those covered by the predefined rights
