10.19.2.1 Using a graphical user interface
Open the Active Directory Schema snap-in. In the left pane, click on the Classes folder. In the right pane, double-click the class you want to modify the
security for. Click the Default Security tab. Modify the security as necessary. Click OK.
10.19.3 Discussion
Whenever a new object is created in Active Directory, a default
security descriptor (SD) is applied to it along with any inherited
security from its parent container. The default security descriptor
is stored in the defaultSecurityDescriptor
attribute of the classSchema object. If you modify
the default SD, every new object will get that SD, but it does not
affect any existing objects.
