User rights are central to both confidentiality and study workflow. Not every team member needs the same level of access. A common mistake in research databases is granting broad permissions for convenience. This may seem efficient initially, but it increases the risk of accidental changes, unauthorized access, inappropriate exports, and difficulty demonstrating compliance during audits.
