Enhancing Security in Autodesk Construction Cloud with D360 Secure

Introduction

Autodesk Construction Cloud (ACC) has become an essential tool in the AEC industry, offering integrated solutions for project management, design collaboration, and data storage. However, despite its robust features, managing permissions effectively remains a challenge, often leading to security risks.

The Challenge: Managing Permissions in ACC

One of the biggest challenges in ACC and Autodesk BIM 360 is controlling user permissions. While these platforms provide security controls, their complexity can cause oversights—particularly in large-scale projects.

Real-World Scenario

Imagine a project manager, who is also the project admin, preparing a critical submission. Suddenly, a consultant reports they cannot access a crucial file. In an attempt to resolve it quickly, the project admin grants excessive access but forgets to revoke it later—leading to a potential security breach.

Why Permission Control Matters

Permission management is crucial in ensuring:?

• Data Security: Prevent unauthorized access to confidential information.?

• Compliance: Adhere to industry regulations and project requirements.?

• Project Integrity: Maintain structured access control to prevent accidental modifications or deletions.?
