Thread:Project:Support desk/MediaWiki Security Settings

I have an opportunity for a job that might allow me the option of developing an Enterprise knowledge base using MediaWiki. We did a very small proof-of-concept a few years ago, but I have not been able to use MediaWiki since then. I work in state government, and for an Enterprise knowledge base based on MediaWiki to fly in my organization, there would need to be the ability to lock pages down so that certain information could be viewed only by specific individuals. For example, maybe highly technical IT information would be visible to only IT employees. It would also be handy if the information on a page could be locked down so that it could only be edited by authorized individuals. Ideally, the security would be handled by Active Directory groups.

Is this something that can be done with MediaWiki?

Thanks for any help that you can offer!
