Authorization
In Turkish: Yetkilendirme
Deciding what an account, person or app is allowed to do or see once it has been identified.
Signing in proves who you are; authorization decides what you can open, change or delete. An ordinary user on a shared document may only read it, while an owner can delete it.
Many privacy slips are authorization slips: a link set to "anyone can view", a folder shared too widely or an app given too many permissions.
What to do
- Check who can see shared files and links, and tighten them.
- Choose "view only" over "can edit" when that is enough.
- Remove people from shared folders when a project ends.
