A system and method of enabling row level security through security policies is disclosed herein. In this system and method, a computing device may be communicatively coupled to a storage device. The computing device may further be activated and maintain data that comprises a plurality of rows. When executed by the computing device, the system and method may process a data definition language statement comprising a security policy definition. Further, the system and method may receive a query language statement comprising a request to access a first column of a row from the plurality of rows. The system and method may process the request and determine if access may be granted to a user based on the security policy definition in the system.
