Security to reports only, not for the model created.
So, a normal parameter map can be used to restrict some
users from viewing the confidential details of a company.
Normally a username and the quotient which is set for them,
so we can restrict them using the quotient no.

for eg:
Username Quotient
Admin 1
User1 2
User2 2
S_User1 3
