Security PBI Pro On-premise

[Anonymous]

Hello,

We are looking to purchase Power BI Pro licenses in our organisation so that my department can create and share reports and dashboards with other people in our organisation. However we are looking into how to secure sensitive data. Is it possible to prevent users from logging in and seeing reports/dashboards when they are not at the office? I.e., it should only be possible for people in our organisation to log in and see reports when they are in the office/connected to our office network (if you know what I mean - I am not an IT guy). I tried googling around but the documentation around security got real technical real fast so any explanation in layman's terms about how to secure data and keep it on-premise would be much appreciated! We want to avoid for example someone being able to share their login to our power bi service and someone else who knows the credentials but is not part of our company being able to see all the data.

Greetings and thanks in advance.

Hi @Anonymous 

If you'd like to set the limit access to the user (no matter the network difference), example: There's A, B, C person, A & B are the members of your organization (A is outrank of B), and C is out of your organization, if you'd like to set the read or even high access to the report, but set B and C restricted to see nothing. you should refer to the RLS.  (Actually, if you don't give the license to C using a special method, he can't access to your workspace generally)

If you'd like to set the limit access to the user who is out of office (No matter whether he is the employee or not), you might refer to the manage employee internet access  or raise it to the support team for better advice:
