DASF-57 — Use attribute-based access controls (ABAC)
Source: official compendium, Databricks AI Mitigation Controls, row 59. Snapshot: 2026-10-22; source revision: DASF v 1.1.

Intent and implementation
Attribute-based access controls (ABAC) allow data stewards to set policies on data and AI assets using various criteria like user-defined tags, workspace details, location, identity and time. Whether it’s restricting sensitive data to authorized personnel or adjusting access dynamically based on project needs, ABAC ensures security measures are applied with detailed accuracy. Implement attribute-based access controls (ABAC) to define access policies based on attributes or characteristics of the user or the resource being accessed. Use row level filters and column masking for fine-grained access controls.

Risks linked by the risk table
The control table separately reports: DASF-R-9.10, DASF-R-9.13. See source issues for differences.
Verification
Project adaptation: get_control returns a concrete evidence request, a proposed test, and an acceptance condition. A control description or product feature is not evidence of deployment or effectiveness.
