data security

Hi,

 

I'm using powerbi to visualize in some graphs. Later, I'm exporting as a Iframe link and embedding to our website. As it is basically Javascript handled visualization, anyone with the link/ url can scrap the data from the page.
Do powerBI have a solution to keep the visualized data secure by making it not readable? I still want the interactiveness of the graphs and I don't mind someone downloads the picture of the graphs.

 

TIA,

Shakil

Hi @xclusive-shakil,

 

As you said, 'Publish to Web' will create an external embed link that will be publically available. Everyone who has the link or embed code can access the report, they cannot edit the report, but they can view it with no restriction. There is no direct way to keep the data secure, you would need to avoid the link or embed code being got by others.

 

But, I am very concern about what you said that "keep the visualized data secure by making it not readable". How to make it unreadable since you have embedded it to website?

Hi @v-yulgu-msft,

Sorry for misinterpretation. I tried to say, I can embed the link in a website, viewer can view, click, hover around the graphs of the report. I just don't want my data is not being scrapped. I'm happy with prodiving the visualization of the data but not the data itself. With that, at the same time I want to provide the interactiveness (tooltip info , color changes etc by mouse hovering events, interactive filters by user click on graphs etc) to users.
But thinking from the 'Web Scrapper View', once the visualized graph is loaded, all of the loaded data concerning the graph is visible from html. Here is my concern.

Is there any possible way in or from powerbi to prevent that? 

I appreciate your kind reply on my question. Let me know if something is not clear yet about my question.

 

Thanks,
Shakil

Anyone there to guide me, please?
