Controlling data access to records
After having looked at setting data security at the object level, which is the overarching level of access to data records, and at how the lowest access is set at the field level, you will now learn about how data access to actual records is applied at the record level.
The data access that is applied at the record level involves multiple types of access settings for records using the concept of record visibility to determine whether users have access to records. Record visibility is coupled with object-level security and the base level of data security is always applied using Profiles or Permission Sets.
To control data access to records and after having configured object-level access permissions, access settings for the actual records are carried out using organization-wide defaults, which specify which data records users are permitted to access.
In addition to the organization-wide defaults, the Lightning Platform security model has been...
