Abstract
The concepts and technologies disclosed herein are directed to security de-escalation for data access. A user device can define a security de-escalation rule. The user device can define a multi-tiered security zone within a user device file system utilized by a memory of the user device. The multi-tiered security zone can include a plurality of security tiers. The user device can identify data for de-escalation in accordance with the security de-escalation rule. The user device can de-escalate the data to generate de-escalated data by storing the data identified for de-escalation in a less secure security tier of the plurality of security tiers of the multi-tiered security zone. The user device can receive a data access request from an external user device. The user device can verify a data access credential contained in the data access request. The user device can provide the de-escalated data to the external user device.
