Access Model Simulator

Pressure-test platform access assumptions across role scope, sensitivity, row or column controls, and external access paths.

Policy simulator

Use this when the role diagram looks clean but real access paths, privileged exceptions, or BI routes may behave differently.

Directional planning only. Do not paste confidential platform, customer, credential, or incident details.

Assessment

Simulate the access model against real paths.

Check scope, sensitivity, policies, access paths, exceptions, and readback so the model is proven instead of assumed.

01 · Role scope

Is the role scoped to the smallest object boundary that can satisfy the user need?

Least privilege starts with scope: workspace, catalog, schema, table, semantic model, or report.

Hint

Least privilege starts with scope: workspace, catalog, schema, table, semantic model, or report.

Best-result move

Keep scope evidence in the access review record.

Policy consequence

Choose a level to see what this decision means for the brief.

02 · Sensitivity handling

Does the model classify sensitive fields and separate confidential access from normal read access?

Controls should reflect sensitivity, not only convenience.

Hint

Controls should reflect sensitivity, not only convenience.

Best-result move

Review sensitivity mappings when new columns or sources arrive.

Policy consequence

Choose a level to see what this decision means for the brief.

03 · Row and column controls

Are row filters, masks, ABAC policies, or semantic restrictions owned as production controls?

A policy is production code when it changes what people can see.

Hint

A policy is production code when it changes what people can see.

Best-result move

Review policy evaluation after upgrades, schema changes, and group changes.

Policy consequence

Choose a level to see what this decision means for the brief.

04 · Access paths

Are UI, SQL, API, shortcut, direct lake, and BI paths tested against the same intent?

Users often reach the same data through more than one path.

Hint

Users often reach the same data through more than one path.

Best-result move

Automate recurring checks for the access paths that matter most.

Policy consequence

Choose a level to see what this decision means for the brief.

05 · Exception review

Are temporary grants, break-glass paths, and privileged exceptions reviewed?

Exceptions become the real model if nobody owns expiry and review.

Hint

Exceptions become the real model if nobody owns expiry and review.

Best-result move

Report expired or unused exceptions as access-risk evidence.

Policy consequence

Choose a level to see what this decision means for the brief.

06 · Audit readback

Can the team prove who has access and why after a policy or group change?

Readback matters more than intended diagrams.

Hint

Readback matters more than intended diagrams.

Best-result move

Keep readback evidence available for audit and incident analysis.

Policy consequence

Choose a level to see what this decision means for the brief.
