• and
• a computer-readable medium storing instructions which, when executed by the processing system to perform operations, the operations comprising:
• detecting an interaction of a first user and a second user;
• providing a temporary authorization to the second user to access a data set based upon an authorization of the first user to access the data set, wherein the providing the temporary authorization is in response to the detecting the interaction;
• generating a record of an access of the second user to the data set, wherein the record includes a notation of the temporary authorization of the second user to access the data set based upon the authorization of the first user;
• detecting an end to the interaction of the first user and the second user;
• and
• revoking the temporary authorization of the second user to access the data set in response to the detecting of the end of the interaction.

A method comprising:

• detecting, by a processing system including at least one processor, that a user authorized to access a data set is in an insecure location;
• receiving, by the processing system, a request from a device of the user at the insecure location to view data from the data set;
• determining, by the processing system, that the data from the data set contains restricted data;
• altering, by the processing system, the restricted data from the data set;
• and
• providing, by the processing system, the data from the data set with the restricted data that is altered to the user.
