# Row-Level Security (RLS)

Row-level security (RLS) is a form of data governance that empowers developers and administrators to restrict an end-user's data visibility within a Power BI report or dataset, determined by the logic applied at the individual row level.

Powerops simplifies the security role information by breaking it down into a user-friendly table, making it easy to comprehend and manage.
