Secure your files with flexible permission controls
Datar Drive provides robust access control features that let you define who can access your files and folders, what actions they can perform, and how content can be shared both internally and externally.
The Drive module uses a comprehensive permission model that combines role-based access control with inheritance and fine-grained permissions.

Datar Drive helps organizations meet compliance requirements and implement data governance policies.
Support for regulatory compliance:
Implement organizational data policies:
Grant users only the permissions they need to perform their job functions. Regularly review and revoke unnecessary access to minimize your security footprint.
Structure your folders to leverage permission inheritance effectively. Group content that should have the same access level together to simplify permission management.
Assign permissions to groups rather than individual users whenever possible. This reduces administrative overhead and ensures consistent access policies as team members change.
Configure default sharing settings that align with your security requirements. Restrict broad sharing options for sensitive departments or content types.
Schedule regular access reviews to identify and revoke unnecessary permissions. Focus especially on sensitive content and departing employees' access rights.
Train users on appropriate sharing practices and the security implications of different sharing options. Help them make informed decisions when sharing content.
