Abstract
Enhanced permission techniques are disclosed that ensures integrity of resources while the resources are provided for re-purposing by users that do not have conventional permissions, such as read or write permissions, to the resources. In some examples, a method to evaluate enhanced permissions for re-purposing a resource from a source path to a target path by a user may include evaluating source permissions and target permissions, and determining whether to allow the re-purposing the resource based on the evaluating. The source permissions are copy permissions or cut permissions specified for the source path and that apply to the user. The target permissions are paste permissions specified for the target path and that apply to the user.
