HIERARCHICAL DATA SECURITY

摘要

A computing system comprises, in one example, a user interface component configured to generate a data security configuration interface that displays user input mechanisms and receives user configuration inputs, and a data security component configured to control user data access. The data security component comprises a plurality of configurable security objects arranged in a security hierarchy. The configuration inputs associate at least one user with each security object in the security hierarchy to define a data access relationship between the users associated with the security objects. The data security component comprises a data access component configured to receive a data access request from a given user, identify a set of users that are associated with security objects in the security hierarchy relative to a security object to which the given user is associated, and provide the given user with access to data objects that are associated with the set of users.

1. A computing system comprising:
a user interface component configured to generate a data security configuration interface that displays user input mechanisms and receives user configuration inputs; and a data security component configured to control user data access, the data security component comprising:
a plurality of configurable security objects arranged in a security hierarchy, wherein the configuration inputs associate at least one user with each security object in the security hierarchy to define a data access relationship between the users associated with the security objects; anda data access component configured to receive a data access request from a given user, identify a set of users that are associated with security objects in the security hierarchy relative to a security object to which the given user is associated, and provide the given user with access to data objects that are associated with the set of users.
