Data Model Security

Written By Sam Walton (Super Administrator)

Updated at July 14th, 2025

The security model in the IBSS platform has been enhanced to include app security rights as well as data model security rights. 

App Security vs Data Model Security

App security rights determine what a user is allowed to do on the IBSS platform whilst data model security rights determines what data the user can create, read, update and delete in the IBSS platform.

Data Model Rights

The IBSS Platform provides Data Model rights on the following functions in a record:

  • Create - the ability to create a new record of that type.
  • Read - the ability to read a record.
  • Update - the ability to modify a record.
  • Delete - the ability to remove a record.
  • Lock - the ability to lock a record (not used).
  • Unlock - the ability to unlock a record (not used).
  • Share - the ability to share rights to the record with another entity.

For each of these rights, the following levels can be applied:

  • None - no rights.
  • Basic - rights apply only to records owned by me. 
  • Local - rights apply to records which are owned by any role that I belong to. 
  • Deep - rights apply to records which are owned by any role (or parent role) that I belong to.
  • Global rights apply to all records of that type.

Note: To amend Data Model rights, please contact IBSS support.

The following lists the record types to which Data Model security can be applied:
