Hi, I cannot assess whether DSpace would be the right platform for you, but I can say something about access restrictions and sensitive data.
DSpace supports access restrictions on a community, collection, item, and bitstream (file) level via group memberships. You could create a number of communities or collections, e.g. "research papers" (public), "institute files" (restricted to members of group "institute") and "administrative data" (restricted to members of group "staff"). We successfully use access restrictions in our own repository to differentiate between metadata access (all institute members) and bitstream access (members of the corresponding working group only). But we were also advised against storing sensitive data in a publicly accessible repository, even if it supports access restrictions, at the German DSpace user meeting 2018. The reasoning behind that is rather simple: like every big software project, DSpace contains security bugs. Some were fixed, others are still uncovered.
