Security On Views Description

Security On Views was designed as a HttpModule in SharePoint 2010 in order to provide a mechanism by which administrators are enables to set security on particular views in any list. It contains a simple HttpModule, a feature and a feature receiver. The feature is a site collection feature. The feature receiver will create a custom list 'Inline.SharePoint.SecurityOnViews' on the root web of the site collection. You can alter the permissions to this list so only administrators can change the configuration. The feature receiver also adds an entry to the 'Modules' tag in the web.config, together with the other Http Modules. The custom list contains the views to which you want to restrict access. What is entered there is the GUID of the view in UPPER CASE. To get the GUID of a view, go to the view in the correct list in the correct web, go to the 'modify view' page and take the 'view' property value from the URL without the brackets. To restrict access to the view, you restrict access to the configuration item which holds the GUID of that view. If the visiting user has no access to the configuration entry, he will not have access to the view in the list.
