Because PowerPivot for Excel and PowerPivot for SharePoint involves so many components from SQL Server 2008 R2 Analysis Services, Office 2010, and SharePoint 2010, this poster provides an end-to-end view of the PowerPivot Security Architecture in one view. This view includes nearly all of the logical security surface areas and illustrates how these systems interact.
Included in this diagram are:
- Service Accounts
- SharePoint Databases
- Security Hardening
- Automatic Data Refresh
- User Identity Flow
- PowerPivot Permissions Levels
Enjoy!
