I have a PageLayout using a content type say X.

The user will create a page using this PageLayout say abc.aspx

Is there a way to automatically set the permission for abc.aspx to certain group in SharePoint so that only those people

can view / edit the pages? for example: using some tags inside of Layout page which sets the security when a new page is created ?



One way could be write a ItemAdded / ItemUpdated event handler, check the content type in there and set Item level permission based on content type



but is there a OOB tag to achieve the same result?
