    Role masking for Now Assist for CSM agentic workflows, AI agents, and skills

    Role masking is used to restrict user access to agentic workflows, standalone AI agents, and skills. This ensures that users only receive the permissions necessary for their tasks, enhancing security and reducing the risk of unauthorized access.

    How Role Masking Works

    Imagine a user assigned roles A, B, and C, where each role grants access to a specific set of data. Normally, only if using Access Control Lists (ACLs), the user could access any data or functions available to roles A, B, and C. With role masking applied, the user can only access data tied to the active role, limiting exposure to unnecessary information.

    Role Masking Considerations for Now Assist in CSM Skills

    When a CSM skill runs, its features are initially controlled by ACL permissions, ensuring users only access authorized data and functions. If the skill uses a Large Language Model (LLM) to perform its task, role masking adds an extra layer of control by filtering the LLM-generated output according to the user’s active role.

    Consider a user with roles A, B, and C, each granting different privileges. If the ACLs defined in the Case Summarization are roles A, B, and C and the masking role defined is role A, If the user activates the Case Summarization skill, and selects Summarize, the process occurs in two steps:
    1. Data Retrieval

      ACL permissions for role A are applied to fetch relevant case data. This ensures the user only sees data they are authorized to view.

    2. Data Summarization

      After data retrieval, an LLM summarizes the case. Role masking is then applied to the output, tailoring the summary to the access privileges defined for role A.

    By applying both ACL permissions and role masking, the system ensures a secure and granular access control mechanism for CSM skills, protecting sensitive information while providing users with the insights they need to perform their tasks effectively. For information on role masking, see.
