Analysts across departments can read shared open-data paths, but not everyone should delete sensitive HDFS directories. What awareness is required?

Accepted Answer

Identity and access controls still matter so not every analyst can delete critical HDFS paths. — Library cards are not the same as master keys to the rare-books vault.
