In many businesses, there is certain data that should not be exposed to all users, such as financial transactions, budgets, salaries, contracts, etc. However, by default, Business Central does not provide a way to restrict access to this data based on the content of the records. For example, if a user has the permission assigned to view the G/L Entry table, they will be able to see all the entries in that table, regardless of the G/L account(s) they are related to. However, many users would not be able to perform their daily tasks without this table permission, and it is common for users to have this permission.

This poses a serious risk for your business, as it can compromise your data security, privacy, and compliance. Moreover, it can affect your users' productivity and performance, as they will have to deal with a lot of irrelevant and distracting information.

Confidential Data Protection solves this problem by enabling you to define which data should be treated confidentially, and who can access that data, at a more granular level. It also helps you to manage your permission sets more efficiently and effectively, by providing you with tools to monitor and resolve any issues related to data confidentiality.
