You can use information in this section to learn about the security features of [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] [!INCLUDEssRSnoversion]. This section also explains the authorization models and authentication providers supported in [!INCLUDEssRSnoversion].
Beginning with [!INCLUDEsql2008r2], support for Extended Protection for Authentication is available. The [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] feature supports the use of channel binding and service binding to enhance protection of authentication. The [!INCLUDEssNoVersion] features need to be used with an operating system that supports Extended Protection. For more information, see Extended protection for authentication with Reporting Services.
[!INCLUDEssRSnoversion] provides different authentication types for users and client applications to authenticate with the report server. Using the right authentication type for your report server enables your organization to achieve the appropriate level of security required by your organization. For more information, see Authentication with the report server.
[!INCLUDEssRSnoversion] also employs roles and permissions to control user access to content in the report server catalog. The roles and permissions define who can access what and how they can access it. For more information, see Roles and permissions (Reporting Services).
