folder and contents normally should inherit the security as set by the level above. You can however overrule these and apply specific permissions for folder and contents. Make sure that the standard user 'Everyone' is removed and add the few users that need to access the reports. Then check whether the users have sufficient rights to the package(s) that are linked to the reports.
