You are asked to show sensitive data to multiple teams. How do you handle access control?

< 1 min read

First, I would identify which parts of the data are sensitive and which teams actually need access to it.
I would work with stakeholders to define clear access rules based on roles and responsibilities.
Next, I would implement role-based access control so each team only sees the data relevant to them.
For example, in one dashboard project regional managers could only view data for their own region.
I would also use row-level or column-level security to restrict sensitive fields if needed.
This ensures confidential information is not visible to unauthorized users.
I would test the access permissions with different user roles to confirm the restrictions work correctly.
Finally, I would document the access rules and coordinate with IT or the data governance team to ensure compliance with company policies.
