The Importance of PBAC for Power BI

High volumes of data and identities (i.e. users and services), along with the challenges of siloed access control approaches create gaps in data security. While Power BI has native access control capabilities, enterprises are centralizing access controls to strengthen their security posture and gain flexibility.

Benefits of PlainID and the Power BI Authorizer

  • Manual and fragmented policy management across tools and data systems

With PlainID

  • Centralized policy management automates management of policies across BI tools and the data ecosystem.
  • Risk reduction through consistent policies applied enterprise-wide with Policy-based Access Control (PBAC).
  • Full Visibility & Control of policies from a unified dashboard that provides reporting and alerting on policy changes.
  • Adapt to Evolving Requirements to keep up with business needs, security threats, and regulatory compliance.
