Permissions are granted to users or SharePoint groups so that they can perform specific actions on securable objects, such as a Site, library, list, folder, item, or document on your Site. Permission levels allow you to group permissions, and apply them to users and SharePoint groups on various Sites in your SharePoint installation.
When you create a new SharePoint Site, there are five permission levels provided by default:
You can add a user who has a valid account, created by a network administrator, to SharePoint. When a user is added to the system, you can assign permissions directly to a securable object (web, list, library, and so on) or indirectly through a SharePoint Group.
Using SharePoint Groups is the recommended practice when managing security as it is easier to manage changes for a group than for individual users and apply the same change to different objects across your Sites. Also, give the name of the group a relevant name, for example HR Management, for executives in the HR department. This makes administration easy for understanding the purpose of the group as the group name is stating the function of the group and its members.
All SharePoint groups are created at the Site collection level (highest level Site), and are available to all sub Sites in the Site collection. You can also create groups that only have permissions to a particular sub Site if inheritance is broken.
