Abstract
Techniques are provided for access controls for question delegation environments. One method comprises obtaining a security policy for a question obtained from a user; monitoring responses to the question; and enforcing, by a third-party portal processing system, access controls within the security policy for data associated with the question and/or the responses to the question, wherein the access controls comprise one or more restrictions with respect to a time duration to access the data and/or a number of people that may access the data. The third-party portal processing system evaluates whether the time duration to access the data has expired before providing access to the data and/or whether the number of people that may access the data has been exceeded before providing access to the data. A client-side encryption of the data is optionally performed by a provider of the data.
