The members of a group named JAdmin can access the folder and have Read, Write, and Execute permissions. No other user can access the folder. You want to ensure that the members of the JAdmin group do not have Write permission on the folder. Also, you want other users to have Read permission on the Report folder.

the JAdmin group, and only Read permission to other users.
