Grant Permission to Endpoint Protection Reports

While reading the Microsoft forums, I saw a request about how to grant permission on Endpoint Protection reports. I thought that I would take the time to put together the steps in System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM/ConfigMgr) 2012 for you.

  • First, create an AD security group called Endpoint Protection Reports.
  • Next, assign the appropriate users to the AD group.
  • Create a security role to grant access to the following items:
    • Antimalware Policy: Run Reports
    • Firewall Setting: Run Reports
    • Site: Read
Endpoint Protection Reports Properties
  • Finally, assign this security scope to the AD security group: Endpoint Protection Reports.

After that last step, you’re done!

In order to help make your life easier, I have exported the Endpoint Protection Reports security role. You can download and import it on your site.
