Hi,

You can restrict to the specific users by setting up below properties.

Go to Tools in cognos connection and click on Capabilities,
You will see list of available cognos capabilities.
click on Set Properties icon to the specific one which you want to restrict and click on Permissions tab and specify the access as per your requirement.

If you have Cognos 8.3 or 8.4 you will not have tools -> Capabilities - instead, click on "Launch" and select "IBM Cognos Administration".  From the Admin console, choose the Security tab at the top, then select Capabilities from tha pane on the left.  The rest is as per the post above.  You will need to grant Execute and Traverse privileges to a user/group/role for them to have access to the specific capability.
