Property Value

Type: System.Boolean
Booleantrue if the area inherits security; otherwise, false.

Never set the InheritSecurity property to false to force inheritance breakage. If you want to break inheritance, use the Microsoft.SharePoint.Portal.Security namespace to add or remove a user or to change the security mask for a given identity. Set InheritSecurity to true when reestablishing the security inheritance to the parent area.
