Hi @Abdelkader TABA,
Is this how you are sharing the report currently?
Note - This option allows you to select one or more groups with which you may want to share your report.
In order to prevent other users from sharing the report with non-members of the concerned group, you could assign them the report_global role, which would put some restrictions on them.
Please take a look at the report sharing roles here.

Hi @Abdelkader TABA ,
this is standard ServiceNow behavior, if you share a report whit a user, then yes, he will be able to see the report.
You can’t limit him to share only whit his own respective groups - please see the sharing permission here: https://docs.servicenow.com/en-US/bundle/vancouver-now-intelligence/page/use/reporting/task/t_ShareA...
