Core Docs - Engagement - Configure Security

Rock Version: v20.0

Rock includes two new security roles for the LMS:

Remember
Facilitators added to a class automatically gain permissions to view and edit grades, even without additional security rights. However, ensure they are assigned the RSR - LMS Workers role to access class and program pages.  

External Site Access
If Enforce Public Security is enabled on a program, anyone with program access on your external site can also view potentially sensitive info on the program if they can reach your internal site. To prevent this, enforce page security under People > Learn.  

As in other areas of Rock, LMS security settings can be granular, but we recommend keeping them as simple as possible. To grant certain people or roles the ability to edit programs or courses, use the security button on the relevant Program or Course.

Security is inherited within the LMS hierarchy:

This inheritance allows you to apply security settings at the highest necessary level, eliminating the need to configure each layer individually.

If someone other than the Facilitator needs permission to view or edit grades, set this security at the appropriate level based on your requirements.
