In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, there are provided mechanisms and methods for securing access to data. These mechanisms and methods for securing access to data make it possible for systems to have improved control over accesses to information by redacting responses made by services based upon access policies. Requestors may be users, proxies or automated entities. This ability of a system to redact responses to queries or requests for services in accordance with access policies makes it possible to attain improved security in computing systems over conventional access control mechanisms that control based upon privileges for accessing a file, an account, a storage device or a machine upon which the information is stored. |
