Session Outline
Role-based access control (RBAC) has long been the standard for controlling who has access to what data. However, with data environments becoming more fast-paced and complex, RBAC is becoming an increasingly risky choice. Its inability to scale leaves organisations with access controls that are either overly restrictive or permissive – meaning data is either inaccessible to those who need it, or broadly accessible even to those who should not see it, which can serious security implications.
Key Takeaways:
- Discuss the three pillars of protecting customer data in the cloud: data discovery, security, and monitoring
- Dive into why RBAC is no longer fit for protecting the modern customer or meeting the exponential growth of data touchpoints
- Show you why attribute-based access control (ABAC) is superior and how to get started implementing it in a modern Lakehouse environment
