Abstract
A computer implemented method searches data. A number of processor units generates a candidate search result using an index for a data source in response to a search query by a user, wherein the candidate search result comprises files accessible by the user based on access control information in the index. The number of processor units generates a completed search result with a set of the files from the candidate search result having a confidentiality level less than or equal to a threshold confidentiality level. The number of processor units determines whether the user has access to a file in the candidate search result in which the file has the confidentiality level greater than the threshold confidentiality level for the data source. The number of processor units adds the file to the completed search result in response to the file being accessible by the user in the data source.
