Application of security parameters for content
Computer-implemented systems, method and products configured for providing one or more restriction groups in a content management system are provided. One or more restriction marks may be associated with the one or more restriction groups. At least a first restriction mark may be associated with a first restriction group. The first restriction mark may be assigned to a first content item stored in the content management system, in response to determining that the first content is associated with the first restriction group, the first content item being associated with metadata indicating user access permissions according to the first restriction mark and a security classification. The metadata associated with the first content item may be updated based on the assignment of the first restriction mark to the first content item to allow or limit user access to the first content item.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the security classification is updated to in addition provide a second set of users, having a second security clearance level, with access to the first content, during a second time period.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein in response to a search query by a first user, the first content item is excluded from a list of results generated for viewing by the first user, when the first content item matches the query and the first content item does not match the user's security classification.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein in response to a search query by a first user, the first content item is excluded from a list of results generated for viewing by the first user, when the first content item matches the query and the first restriction mark is not assigned to the first content item.
8. The method of claim 1 , wherein in response to a search query by a first user, the first content item is excluded from a list of results generated for viewing by the first user, when the first content item matches the query and the first content item either does not match the user's security classification or the first restriction mark is not assigned to the first content item.
9. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:
receiving, through a graphical user interface on a display device, a selection of a plurality of users of the content management system; and
receiving, through the graphical user interface on the display, a selection of one or more restriction marks; and
assigning, by the content management system, the one or more restriction marks to the selection of the plurality of users.
10. The method of claim 9 , further comprising:
receiving, through the graphical user interface on the display device, a selection of a restriction classification of a set of restriction classifications; and
assigning, by the content management system, the selected restriction classification to a content item stored in the content management system.
11. A computer-implemented system comprising:
at least one processor;
at least one memory configured to store machine-readable instructions, which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform one or more operations, the one or more operations comprising:
receiving, through a graphical user interface on a display device associated with a content management system, a selection of one or more restriction groups, at least a first restriction mark being associated with a first restriction group;
assigning the first restriction mark to a first content item stored in the content management system, in response to determining that the first content item is associated with the first restriction group, the first content item being associated with metadata indicating user access permissions according to the first restriction mark and a security classification;
displaying, on the graphical user interface on the display device, one or more restriction marks associated with the one or more restriction groups;
receiving, through the graphical user interface on the display, a selection of the displayed one or more restriction marks for being assigned to a content item stored in the content management system, the content item having associated metadata stored in the content management system; and
updating metadata associated with the content item, the updated metadata indicating that the selection of the one or more restriction marks is assigned to the content item.
12. The system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more operations further comprise:
receiving, through the graphical user interface on the display, the selection of the one or more restriction marks for assigning to a user of the content management system, the content item managed by the content management system; and
updating a profile associated with the user, to include the one or more restriction marks.
13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the one or more operations further comprise:
receiving a request, at the content management system and from the user, to access the content item;
comparing, by the content management system, the one or more restriction marks indicated in the metadata associated with the content item with the one or more restriction marks in the profile of the user; and
granting the user access to the content item in response to the comparing revealing that the one or more restriction marks in the profile of the user satisfy the one or more restriction marks in the metadata associated with the content item.
14. The system of claim 13 , wherein the one or more operations further comprise:
receiving, through the graphical user interface on the display device, a selection of a plurality of users of the content management system; and
receiving, through the graphical user interface on the display, a selection of one or more restriction marks; and
assigning, by the content management system, the one or more restriction marks to the selection of the plurality of users.
15. The system of claim 11 , wherein the one or more operations further comprise:
receiving, through the graphical user interface on the display device, a selection of a restriction classification of a set of restriction classifications; and
assigning, by the content management system, the selected restriction classification to the content item stored in the content management system.
16. A non-transitory computer readable storage media for storing instruction, wherein execution of the instruction by one or more processors causes a computer to:
provide one or more restriction groups in a content management system;
associating one or more restriction marks with the one or more restriction groups, at least a first restriction mark being associated with a first restriction group;
assign the first restriction mark to a first content item stored in the content management system, in response to determining that the first content item is associated with the first restriction group, the first content item being associated with metadata indicating user access permissions according to the first restriction mark and a security classification;
update the metadata associated with the first content item based on the assignment of the first restriction mark to the first content item to allow or limit user access to the first content item; and
update the metadata associated with the first content item to further allow or limit user access to the first content item, in response to determining that the security classification is updated.
