Alexander Kolbasov commented on SENTRY-2140:
--------------------------------------------

This sounds reasonable. Another way to do it is to have top-level ABAC JIRA and 
have various sub-jiras below it (e.g. column masking, etc). The drawback of 
that approach is that you can only have subtasks, not sub-jiras so now you 
can't have a subtask of a subtask which is inconvenient.

What may be really confusing if we close ABAC jira and it turns out that there 
is a lot to be done still.

> As a user, I want to have finer grain control over which users/roles can view 
> data in Hive.  Some information such as Social Security Number is considered 
> very confidential information.  I want to be able to tag columns in Hive with 
> "attributes" that prevent users/roles from not accessing or seeing the data.  
> For users/roles that have that attribute, they should be able to see that 
> information.
