[Sigia-l] Designing a site with restricted content

Another part of restricting the content to consider is search. You want to
be sure you've configured your search engine (assuming Intranet or corporate
search) to only display results that the user has the correct security
access. Some search engines are good at this and some aren't. If I remember
correctly Verity was developed for use by the CIA (correctly if I'm wrong
here) and includes the ability to screen out results by access level.

Subject: [Sigia-l] Designing a site with restricted content


Does anyone have any thoughts about the best design strategy for a content 
managed website where much of the content is restricted depending on the 
type of login a particular user has?

Should all restricted content be hidden until an appropriate login is used? 
Or should all items be visible to all users, but with a login page between 
selecting the link and viewing the actual content?

any thoughts or links to relevant information/research/case studies would be

greatly appreciated.
