I'm trying to determine the best route and options I have for securing a particular folder that users can access reports from in .net 4.0.  My application stores reports that have been run in a folder on the server and by using the specified url link they can access this folder and specific reports.  I'm trying to lock this folder down to allow access to only certain users (I have 3 specific types of users).  To further isolate them I can create three seperate folders within the parent folder for these groups.  The trick here is how do you setup permissions on these folders for hundreds of users that are in three different role levels.  Also, to complicate it further is it possible to set permissions on these folders to allow only certain users within the same group to be able to access these folders?
Standard Setup Below:
Super Group - access to Super, Medium, and Small group folders
Medium Group - medium group folder and Small ...
