Description:

Jack is the project administrator of a project prj1. The project involves a large volume of sensitive data including user IDs, shopping records along with the data mining algorithms with proprietary intellectual property rights. Jack wants to protect the sensitive data and algorithms and allow only project users to access the data within the project. He also wants to make sure that data flows within the project only.

Solution:

To protect the project data, Jack must perform these steps: 
    use prj1;
    set ProjectProtection=true; --Enable the project data protection mechanism

Once the project data protection is enabled, data within the project cannot be transferred out of the project. All the data flows only within the project.

If users want to export data tables out of the project, an approval of the project administrator is needed. Here, MaxCompute provides the TrustedProject configuration to support external data export from the protected project. In this case, configure project prj2 as a trusted project of prj1 and enable data flow from prj1 to prj2 through the following command: 
    use prj1;
    add trustedproject prj2;
