Hi all,

We’re building an app where we want different customer data to be filtered to different users, with admin seeing everything. We have it in place but Glide has been clear that Filtering is not a security feature.

What other resources have you used to combat security issues in Glide and make sure your apps are secure while filtering different data to different users?

Thanks!

Best,

Patrick
